Therapy for Encinitas Adults and Couples.

.

Encinitas, CA

If you’re searching for a therapist serving Encinitas, you may be looking for more than coping skills. You may want a space where the deeper story finally gets named: the attachment wounds, the emotional burnout, the protective patterns, the relationship dynamics that keep repeating even when you’re trying your best.

I work with adults and couples who feel stuck in anxiety, perfectionism, conflict, disconnection, or old survival strategies that no longer fit who they are becoming. Together, we look beneath the surface of symptoms and into the patterns that shaped them. That includes how trauma lives in the body, how the nervous system learns protection, and how relationships often mirror old wounds.

My approach blends clinical depth with realness. I draw from attachment-based therapy, somatic and polyvagal work, parts work, and trauma-informed couples therapy to help clients move from survival into greater clarity, safety, and connection.

For Encinitas clients who want therapy that is both compassionate and direct, this work offers a place to slow down, tell the truth, and begin changing what has felt fixed for too long.


I offer in-person therapy in Vista for clients coming from Encinitas, as well as online therapy throughout California. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

    Jessica is the best! If you're looking for a trauma-informed, compassionate therapist in North County San Diego for anxiety, life transitions, relationship stress, or divorce-related support, Jessica brings a rare level of care and emotional intelligence to her work. Jessica has been a steady, grounding presence for me during some of the most emotionally difficult times in my life, including a very painful divorce and custody battle that brought up a lot of anxiety and emotional overwhelm. The support, comfort, and insights she offered made a real impact on me. She has a calm, compassionate, and deeply thoughtful way of helping people feel seen while also offering honest perspective. Her physical office is in Vista and it's very clean and comfortable. Her website says she serves clients from Encinitas, Carlsbad, Oceanside, and San Marcos as well as online. I highly recommend Ethos Relational Therapy!
