Online Mindfulness Therapy in California

Imagine feeling at peace without needing constant distractions.

What could your day look and feel like without your mind racing? If you could go about your day without worrying about what might happen next? If those painful reminders didn’t bring up a storm of memories and emotions?

Mindfulness gives you the space to pause:

  • Get out of the cycle of reacting to things as they come up, never getting a break

  • Stop wasting all the mental energy it takes to “manage” your problems all the time

  • Leave behind the stress and worry that things will fall apart if you don’t have a contingency plan

There’s a better way to live.

Hi, I’m Jess and I can help.

I use mindfulness therapy techniques to change the way you approach life. Instead of feeling frustrated trying to stop your thoughts and feelings, therapy with me is all about using mindfulness, acceptance, and re-storying to help you develop resilience, feel comfortable in your own skin, and transform the way you relate to problems when they come up.

My clients walk away from therapy with me feeling like everything has changed.

I often hear from my clients that this is the first kind of therapy that’s really clicked, that they’ve never learned so much about themselves, and that they feel confident they’ll be able to keep up these changes consistently- no matter what happens.

You’ll learn about how your mind works based on the latest psychological neuroscience research. You’ll get in touch with your body to learn how to hear and understand the messages it’s sending you. You’ll tap into your gut intuition and learn how to trust it. With these three centers of intelligence, you’ll feel fully at home with yourself.

And finally, when you’re ready to leave therapy, you’ll feel at peace because you’re equipped to handle anything that comes your way.

How Therapy Works

 

Let’s start with an introduction.

One thing we know from research is that the most healing part of therapy is the relationship you have with your therapist. Even the most current techniques and scientifically-backed treatments don’t affect therapy outcomes as much as whether or not you feel seen, heard, and understood. That’s why therapy often starts with a free consultation. We can’t fully get to know each other in a quick 20-30 minute video chat, but I’ll structure our time so I can hear a bit about what’s going on for you and you can ask me anything about myself or the therapy process.

We’ll meet weekly for sessions

Meeting weekly at the same time helps build therapy into your routine. We’ll touch base with any new things you noticed, check how the week went, and bring it all back to your goals. Therapy with me stays focused on helping you learn more about yourself, how you use the three centers of intelligence, and using the mindfulness tools to change the way you relate to yourself and others.

We’ll end therapy intentionally

When you’re ready, we’ll switch over to an intentional ending process. This set of sessions is all about helping you maintain the gains you’ve seen through your work in therapy. You’ll feel resilient, trust yourself to handle whatever life throws at you, and be at peace in your mind and body.

You can come back if you need to

When something comes up that you want to talk through, I’m still here. People who have been through therapy with me are welcome to return for just a single session if that’s what you need, or a few sessions of support.

You don’t have to keep struggling against life’s problems. I can help you learn a new, resilient way to live.

I’m looking forward to meeting you. I provide Mindfulness Based Narrative-Existential therapy to people in California who don’t want to keep repeating the same patterns. Together, we’ll transform the way you approach life so you can feel like you’re moving forward and living your values instead of focusing on the problems.
