Jessica Hoekstra

Jessica Hoekstra, a compassionate and dedicated Counselor and LMHC, believes therapy is about creating space for change. Clients come to her for a variety of reasons—seeking support and healing, desiring transformation, or looking for relief from pain. Through a relational and trauma-informed lens, Jessica works collaboratively to help individuals explore how they arrived at their current place, enabling them to discover new ways of living that are kinder to themselves and more aligned with a fulfilling, healthy life. She provides support to teens, adults, and couples dealing with trauma, anxiety, grief, relationships, life transitions, and identity formation. Jessica has a special focus on assisting women recovering from trauma and has completed Level One of the Gottman Method, a research-based approach tailored for couples. Her studies in interpersonal neurobiology and Polyvagal Theory complement her therapeutic practice, acknowledging the connection between the mind and body and emphasizing the body's inherent wisdom. As an ally to the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities, Jessica strives to create an inclusive and welcoming environment. As a gentle yet challenging therapist, she is committed to fostering a safe and supportive space for exploration, listening attentively and providing a non-judgmental presence. Asking for help is a courageous step, and Jessica is eager to support her clients on their journeys.
