Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered

My skills include couple therapy work with clients of a number of diverse backgrounds and diverse circumstances. I employ an emotionally focused approach that emphasizes the establishment of mutual trust and comfort between partners, enhanced communication skills, and targeting reductions in criticism, defensiveness, and stonewalling. In addition, I have years of experience with individual therapy, specifically treating survivors of trauma, with an emphasis on trauma processing and attention to secondary symptoms associated with such, including compulsive behaviors and substance use. I am welcoming and affirming of current and former sex workers, those in the adult industry, and those who find their fit in what are considered alternative lifestyles. I typically serve clients over the age of 18 and practice in English.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California, offering services at my office in Oakland as well as online to California residents. I provide psychotherapy and coaching for a variety of issues, including trauma, depression, anxiety, living with HIV/AIDS, grief and loss, interpersonal and relationship problems (specifically polyamorous and nonmonogamous folks), questions of sexual identity, confusion around vocation and life purpose, and more. Although I have a diverse practice, my specialties include:

• EMDR for rapid, effective healing from the enduring impacts of trauma

• Working with people questioning their gender identity, exploring/pursuing transitioning, or seeking mental health assessment letters for surgery

• Working with gay men to develop an identity, lifestyle, and relationship that are true to their deepest selves

• Working with women from a feminist perspective to examine and challenge oppressive social conditioning and double standards at work and in relationships

My clients find a comfortable, supportive and engaging atmosphere. The process of therapy leads to healing from loss, developing deeper intimacy with others, becoming more resilient, and letting go of emotional patterns that no longer serve you. Effective therapy involves a moment-to-moment experience of both feelings and ideas in order to understand the past, to live more fully in the present and to choose well for the future. My own healing journey and life experience as an artist, photographer, gay man, nature lover, traveler, student, therapy client, Buddhist practitioner and worker for social justice enable me to bring a breadth of understanding and wisdom to the lives of the people with whom I work.

I am not paneled with any insurance companies other than a few Employee Assistance Programs (see my website for details on this.) I require full payment at the time of each session; however, I can provide a statement that you may use to seek reimbursement from your insurance company if they cover out-of-network therapy services. Please visit my web site to see my current fees.

I work with adults who want to increase health in their relationships. I particularly enjoy working with men, partners navigating affairs/infidelity, sexuality, and religious/spiritual trauma. All parts of your humanity are welcome and celebrated.

I approach mental health wellness through a lens of post-colonialism, healing justice and transformative justice. I think it is integral to situate our wellness within the context of the multiple systems that we exist in, consider both collective and individual pathways toward healing, and to believe in every person’s ability to transform and build a life of abundance for self and for others. The interventions I primarily utilize include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and somatic trauma processing. Through these interventions, I stress the mind-body-spirit connection, and integrate mindfulness strategies throughout all of the work that we do. I am passionate about working with QTI, BIPOC, nonmonogamous clients. I offer couples and polycule counseling, as well as individual therapy for adults, children and teens. I have extensive training and experience supporting people in navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, interpersonal dynamics, and boundaries with work and school. We are currently only offering telehealth services at this time.

Call me Jess. I believe therapy is a collaborative process grounded in a trusting, therapeutic relationship. In my role, I provide the compassionate space for you to begin self-reflection and explore ways to initiate changes in your life. The therapy relationship becomes the safe, working model to practice communication. Part of my style is helping you embrace uncertainty in the transformation process, clarify your values, and explore your relationship with your thoughts, emotions, and body.

Poly, non-monogamous, and mixed-orientation relationships are just as unique as monogamous one, be it rewarding / enjoyable or challenging. Relationships can go from absolutely amazing to being on the verge of the breaking point without us even knowing how we got there. Sometimes this means that we need to gain a better understanding of ourselves and the relationship overall. This can happen through self-exploration, communication building, and renegotiating expectations, just to name a few.

Because I work with both those in relationships and individuals I know not everyone I work with will focus directly on their relationship, every client deserves someone who is affirming and accepting of who they are as an individual. I provide services to the broader LGBT community across the lifespan, including children and teens. I also make every attempt to ensure that therapy fits my clients lives and their lifestyles. This means telehealth session so that you can be in your most comfortable environment as well as late evening sessions.

But if you are looking for a therapist that will just nod or agree with everything you have to say, I am not the therapist you. But if you are looking for a therapist that is down to earth, direct, and will help you establish true goals and actually teach you the tools to reach those goals, then you have found the right therapist

As a therapist I believe that you have the power and knowledge within you to help with the problems you are experiencing; to heal and to grow. As a practitioner I make a commitment to you to help and support you with what you bring to me. To do this I use my experience and understanding to support you in a way which is open, non-judgmental, focused on your issues and as real and human as possible.

I believe therapy is about your felt experience inside and outside of the therapy room, rather than about cognitive interpretations of your past and behaviour.
