The Heart of My Practice: A Passion for Genuine Connection and Support
Jessica Hagen, LMFT
I’m not your average therapist; I am human and bring my authentic self into every session. I believe in the power of real, honest conversation. I work hard to create a space where you can truly be yourself.
I’m often told that our sessions feel more like conversations than formal therapy sessions, and that’s exactly how I want them to feel. Therapy should feel like a partnership—collaborative and comfortable. I’m a big believer in genuine connection and the idea that we’re all humans doing our best, even when things get tough.
I work with clients aged 14 and older, and I am trained in using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help work through trauma and other emotional challenges. I also specialize in working with individuals navigating significant life transitions, such as job changes or the loss of a loved one, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, exploring identity and self-worth, and complex family dynamics.
Life’s bumps and bruises can be tough, but they also shape us into who we are, and I believe that our struggles often hold the seeds for our growth. As Maya Angelou once said, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you".
