Hi there, I'm Jesse!

My name is Jesse and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I know life sometimes gets difficult as everyone has different roles and responsibilities. Therefore, my role as a therapist I would like to help you to foster your understanding of your struggles and empower you to overcome your challenges.

My approach

I provide therapy through the lens of cognitive behavioral therapy. I believe thoughts and emotions are interrelated. If we can change our thought processes, then our emotions can be different.

My focus

I have years of experience working with people with mood disorders, anxiety, relationship issues, etc.

My communication style

My communication style is being supportive, empathic, direct, genuine, and transparent in the session.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have a passion for empowering people to become independent and a better person to explore ongoing opportunities in life.

My goals for you

I like to hold open communication with my clients to review the progress and the barriers that may hinder their abilities to grow. I believe people can grow with supportive and constructive feedback.

My first session with you

open discussion with client's expectations for therapy explore ambivalence about therapy and changes that the client is aiming to make
