Couples Therapist

Jess collaborates with couples and individual partners who have been impacted by problematic sexual behavior, sex addiction, porn addiction, and repeated infidelity and betrayal.

She helps her clients rebuild trust and a healthier vision for their partnership and themselves, working toward sexual, relational, and personal wellness and integrity. Working from a humanistic and strengths-based lens, Jess employs an eclectic approach that is trauma- and neuroscience-informed and draws from Acceptance and Commitment, Cognitive Behavioral, Narrative, and Psychodynamic therapies. As a certified yoga instructor and nature enthusiast Jess also loves to bring movement and mindfulness into her work to help her clients build healthier relationships with their bodies and minds. Her clients explore their underlying needs, where unmet and unexpressed needs lead to problematic behaviors, motivation to change those behaviors, and core values, visions, and goals to guide them toward a more fulfilling future.

Jess holds an MA in Mental Health Counseling and Behavioral Medicine from Boston University School of Medicine, has passed the National Clinical Mental Health Counselor exam (NCMHCE), and is a 200-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher with the National Yoga Alliance. She comes to the psychotherapy field after a rewarding career as an organizational consultant. Her experience helping non-profit leaders identify needs and collaborate on shared visions, values, and goals has been instrumental in her work with couples.
