I offer culturally sensitive counselling to individuals, couples, poly-relationships and families. I believe the collaborative process expands awareness, resolves disconnections, nurtures compassion, and uplifts relationship satisfaction and confidence. My integrative approach draws from Narrative Therapy, Voice Dialogue, Emotional Integration, and Mindfulness practices. Changes in life are inevitable, and navigating the twists and turns can be challenging. Our work will nurture interdependence from an emotionally aware perspective that supports courageous conversations and a problem-solving skillset.

I create opportunities to practice powerful ways to connect with your partner(s) and family. Our work will prioritize cultivating awareness of self, then accurate understanding of your loved one(s). Equipped with these skills you can then practice being a loving, supportive partner. My approach with couples, poly relationships and families almost always produces deeper connections, and greater ease when adapting to changes. Healthy partnerships and family engagements produce joy and fulfillment. It’s not an illusion of smoke and mirrors, but it is work. Expect homework, no skill is earned without practice!

I specialize in counseling and supporting individuals and those in relationships who are dealing challenges related to sex, anxiety, & trauma. I am also a strong advocate (and part of) the LGBTQIA+ community. I also work with depression, and general stress/burnout.

I am a licensed psychotherapist and sex therapist, and work with individuals, couples and multiple-partner relationships.

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.)

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.
