⭐ About Jessica

I am a humanistic and family systems oriented clinical social worker with 12 years of experience working in community mental health, federally qualified health centers and NJ public schools. I am dually licensed in NJ and PA as a therapist, certified as a clinical supervisor and a certified school social worker.

💬 Why did you become a therapist for kids and families?

Ever since childhood, I loved helping people. As I grew up, I learned how important connection within a family is in developing self-worth and confidence. In college it became my mission to serve and support children and their families in developing their communication and bond. Once I graduated with my masters in 2011, I began the journey to support young people and their caregivers- and never looked back! Nothing energizes me more than helping families thrive.
