Jessica Pavelka
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), Psychotherapist
I am a collaborative, strength-based, integrative cognitive behavioral therapist for adults.
What does fulfillment mean to you? What are the barriers that prevent you from feeling fulfilled? During our sessions, we will explore these topics along with your goals. I will provide useful reflection, tools, and unconditional support. Trained by the University of Pennsylvania and the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I provide effective counseling for anxiety, mood disorders, low self-esteem, and stress.
