Jessica Youseffi, LMFT

Do you struggle with anxiety, or low self-esteem? Are you tired of feeling like there's something wrong with you or that you're not good enough? Through a mindfulness-based, somatic, and trauma-sensitive approach, I support you in exploring your experience with curiosity and compassion, so that you can let go of limiting beliefs about yourself, feel at home in your own skin, and be free to live the life you want. After working with me, my clients report feeling more grounded and confident, and are better able to navigate relationships, life transitions, and daily stressors. The way we relate to ourselves is key to our well-being. In times of difficulty, we can be harshly self-critical, which can lead to depression or self-loathing, and can make it harder to achieve our goals. I help my clients shift their toxic inner voice and develop greater self-acceptance and inner warmth so they can walk through life with more confidence. In addition to talk therapy, I use Brainspotting and Somatic therapy to process trauma, and help you to regulate your own nervous system so that you can more resiliently face life's ups and downs. I also provide queer and gender affirmative therapy (LGBTQ+), and support people with marginalized identities work towards healing the wounds of discrimination.
