Hi, I’m Dr. Jessica. Thank you for checking out my profile. Finding the right therapist can be a bit of a process, and I appreciate you considering my services. I specialize in working with high-achievers, highly-sensitive/empath people, influences and content creators who are balancing career, relationships, and personal wellbeing. Many of my clients come to me exhausted from burnout or carrying deep relationship wounds—whether from breakups, divorce, or ongoing relationship struggles. These experiences can leave you questioning your self-worth and identity.

Caitlin Weber

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hi I'm Caitlin, a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I work solely with women (ages 18-35) in my practice. Are you navigating low-acuity anxiety, stress, life transitions, adjustments, and general women's wellness? This might be the place for you.

Therapy is a wellness journey—an intentional act of self-care rooted in holistic health. My style is nonjudgmental, authentic, and grounded in self-compassion. I aim to create a space where clients feel safe to be fully themselves while feeling supported to grow. I model what I encourage in my clients: progress, not perfection. My approach is collaborative, honest, and focused on real-life application. Wellness is meant to be lived.

I joyfully integrate Ecotherapy into my work, as walk-and-talk sessions can offer meaningful benefits, including bilateral stimulation that supports emotional and cognitive processing. I often take Telehealth sessions outdoors while walking and invite clients who are interested and physically able to do the same virtually.

If you’re seeking to reconnect with your authentic self, exhale, and support your overall well-being, this may be the right space for you. I invite clients to come exactly as they are and honor the growth that unfolds throughout the therapeutic journey. Clients who commit to consistency often experience the most meaningful progress. At times, therapy may feel harder before it feels better—this is a natural and important part of healing. As emotions surface and insight deepens, lasting change begins to take shape.

My role is not to “fix” you, but to walk alongside you. I collaborate, support, and integrate wellness coaching and faith integration, when desired, to help foster autonomy, resilience, and personal growth. At the core of my work is creating a supportive space where clients can embrace who they are and move toward meaningful change with self-compassion.

Jillian Smith

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a specialization in spirituality and depth psychology. At the heart of my work is a deep belief that healing begins with self-love and unconditional acceptance — for yourself, not just others. I've seen how harsh self-judgment holds people back, so I bring a compassionate, non-critical presence to every session. I also believe strongly in building graceful boundaries and healthy self-care routines as the foundation for a fulfilling life. Whatever has brought you here — grief, a difficult relationship, trauma, or simply a desire to know yourself better — I'm here to walk alongside you without judgment.
