Reconnect, gain clarity and live intentionally
It can feel like you’re just going through the motions, playing a role and always caring for others. You’re likely feeling overwhelmed, tired and maybe even irritable at times. These days it seems anything can set you off: it could mean crying in your car or losing your cool with your partner and kids….. again.
Sometimes you just feel so completely disconnected and empty: not sure if you care too much or too little. You probably hide it well, but inside feel like a mess. It may be impacting your relationships, family or even your job. Is your relationship or job the problem… or something you’re doing?
Maybe you have tried to discuss it with family and friends or bought every self-help book but are not able to move forward.
I offer space and support to clients where we explore patterns, set boundaries and outline the life you want. Through our therapeutic connection- I will guide you in finding your own sense of peace and balance. I am grateful to work with you as you gain control to find freedom and happiness in your life.
Hi! My name is Jessica Van Cleave, I am a nationally board certified counselor and I am really glad you found me!
The most important factor for success in counseling is the relationship. I believe this comes from trust and authenticity. So I must confess, I am not a flawless perfect therapist that knows or can preach all of life’s answers to you…..but I genuinely care. I’ll listen and reflect, even the things that are difficult to talk about.
My approach is direct but kind; real yet hopeful. I gently push clients out of comfort zones while always remaining accepting and respectful. I use evidence-based counseling techniques (which just means science supports the stuff I use) including: Trauma-Focused CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, and humor.
I value trust, humor, vulnerability, and mutual comfort in the therapeutic relationship. If these are qualities you also value, connect today! Convenient and confidential counseling sessions are done with anyone in Michigan through secure video from the comfort of your home, car or any quiet space! All that is needed is reliable connection and private space.
I look forward to working with you!
