Jessica Dye, LMFT

Jessica Dye is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - LMFT - who focuses on supporting people who identify as women between the ages of 20 and 65, especially those juggling many roles at once. She works with clients who often feel overwhelmed, burned out, anxious, or depressed after managing responsibilities as partners, siblings, friends, coworkers, parents, or caregivers. Many come for help with self-esteem and body image concerns, relationship challenges, the lasting impacts of childhood experiences, and developing sustainable self-care habits.

In her work, Jessica helps clients manage anxiety and depressive symptoms, explore and process traumatic experiences, and address guilt or shame that arises when prioritizing self-care. She guides clients in learning how to set healthy boundaries, honor the relationship between their body and mind, and build consistent, positive routines. Her goal is to support people in practicing compassionate self-care so they can be healthier while still caring for others.

During the first session, Jessica focuses on establishing whether the therapeutic relationship is a good fit. That initial visit includes an intake, collaborative goal-setting, and a practical takeaway to try between sessions. She frames this meeting as an opportunity to test compatibility and to leave with one actionable step toward change.

Her approach is eclectic and tailored to each person's needs. Jessica commonly draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques, mindfulness practices, somatic experiencing, client-centered work, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-focused CBT, and family systems theory. She invites clients to participate in a collaborative process, adapting modalities to the issues at hand and the client’s preferences.

Clients working with Jessica can expect a warm, kind, and nonjudgmental space where building trust happens at the client’s pace. She emphasizes education about therapeutic tools and focuses on making progress sustainable and even enjoyable when possible. Her aim is to help clients feel heard, respected, and a bit lighter as they move toward the goals they set together. Ultimately, Jessica seeks to empower each person to develop the skills to support themselves over time while honoring their unique voice and story.
