People-Pleasing & Anxiety Therapy in Hurst, TX | Online Across Texas

“I help women who are exhausted, overthinking, and pushing themselves to do it all … and still feeling like it’s not enough so they can stop surviving and start living.

You’re reliable, capable, and overextended. You do everything for everyone else. Inside anxiety, overthinking, and people-pleasing are wearing you down. You want relief, but you don’t want to feel selfish or guilty for taking care of yourself. I help overly responsibility people step off the treadmill, set healthy boundaries, and reclaim their confidence, energy, and sense of self without judgment.

Anxiety & Trauma Therapy for Adults Ready to Live Again – Why Choose Me?

I’ve trained with top clinicians at major hospitals, TCU, and the Yale REACH Institute. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, OCD, complex health challenges, and challenging family dynamics. As a recovering perfectionist who takes care of everybody else first I get it from the inside out!

Your therapy is never a checklist. Every treatment plan is thoughtful, personalized, and paced for your nervous system. My work blends strong clinical training with genuine warmth and care – because feeling safe and understood is essential for real change.

Depth and experience matter. When you’re anxious, traumatized or used to hiding how much you’re carrying, you need a therapist who can slow things down, notice patterns, and help you gently untangle the anxiety and people-pleasing habits that keep you stuck.

Because I run an independent practice, you won’t be passed between providers. You get consistency, high standards, and a therapeutic relationship you can trust as you break old patterns and start feeling like yourself again.

“Jessie really gets me. She listens and makes me really think about what I think about me.”

How Anxiety Therapy in Hurst, TX Works

I’m a therapy nerd – deeply trained, endlessly curious, and here for the long haul.

I provide anxiety therapy and trauma-informed care for adults with complex needs. That might mean EMDR, IFS, or good old talk therapy. You don’t need to know the best path. I’ll guide you, listen if something feels off, and adjust as we go. And when it clicks, you’ll feel that “yes, YES” moment, the breakthrough everyone loves.
