About Me

Hello, 

My name is Dr. Jessica and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist practicing in Herndon, Virginia.  In 2007, I earned my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (PsyD) from The George Washington University.  I completed my internship and residency in Wyoming where I worked with numerous specialty populations including young children, developmental disabilities, trauma, and severe mental illness.  Since, I have provided outpatient psychological services to children, adolescents, adults, and families in Northern Virginia.  I believe in a caring, comprehensive, and individualized approach to treatment, where I can work with you on developing and reaching your personal goals.  My specialty therapy services include Play Therapy to children 2 and older, Adolescent Therapy, Adult Individual Therapy, Family Therapy, Parental-Guidance, and Co-Parenting.  My assessment services include Cognitive/Intellectual, Learning Disability, Neuropsychological, ADHD, Autism and Developmental Disabilities, and Social-Emotional and Personality Functioning. 

I am a proud and active member of the following professional organizations, were I regularly collaborate with other professionals and provide education to providers and the community about a variety of mental health needs.
