Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who is licensed in Mississippi with 23 years of professional work experience. I have a uniquely diverse background. My direct client experience ranges from helping clients with everyday life challenges, stress and anxiety, decreased motivation and self- esteem to marriage and family difficulties. I am skilled in assisting clients who are coping with addictions or who may be in the addiction recovery phase. I have also worked extensively with dual diagnosis clients and those suffering from acute symptoms of mental illness. I believe in meeting clients “where they are”, while treating them with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can require enormous courage, and I commend you for choosing this therapeutic journey. I look forward to joining you as we work, learn, and grow during our time together. Jessica
