About

JESSICA, lcsw, lcadc

I graduated from Rutgers University with a master’s in social work and completed academic and clinical requirements to receive my clinical social work and alcohol and drug counseling licenses in the state of New Jersey. I am also a certified clinical supervisor. I value the power of connection through adversity. My sessions are known to be warm, genuine, direct, humorous and goal oriented. My primary experience has been with substance use disorders, mood disorders, trauma, relationship issues, family dynamics, anger management and other associated symptoms. My intention is to empower my clients when working through life changes in a way that will support long-term wellness that will follow them beyond our therapeutic space.

Clients have appreciated my solution focused and strengths-based approach which emphasizes self-compassion while acknowledging areas in need of change. I encourage a client centered session in efforts to remain in-tuned with one's level of comfort while maintaining accountability toward personalized goals. I welcome feedback on your preference of therapy to foster a space most comfortable to you on your journey.
