Berkeley Holistic Therapy

Counselor, AMFT, MPH, PhD
Last Updated 30+ days ago

Hello! I'm Jess, and I'm a psychotherapist. I love supporting people in their journeys of self-discovery.

Throughout my life, hardships led me to seek healing in various forms. The insights and skills I gained in my own healing journey enable me to support others. My expertise stem from challenges I've worked through or experiences helping other people.

I help people who long for a deeper connection to themselves or others but feel stuck between being true to themselves and being who they "should" be. Sometimes, this means conforming to the norm or hiding a part of yourself.

Therapy can be a space to reflect on how things got this way and how to create the life you want.

I know from my own path to wholeness, that it can feel overwhelming, isolating, or frustrating. I believe that we all have an inner compass and an innate ability to heal and grow. Sometimes we lose our way, and it's hard to move forward. I can walk along this path with you, and we can explore together what is most important to you and the direction you want to go.

If you're feeling like something has to change but don't know where to start, please schedule a free consultation, and we can talk about how I might be helpful to you.

I work especially well with students who are:
- Grappling with growing up in a different country or culture than their parents
- Questioning their gender identity or sexual orientation
- Struggling with peer pressure and trying new things
- Figuring out who they are and what their values, beliefs, and interests are
- Managing complicated relationships or friendships
- Highly sensitive people
