Jessica Thompson, LCSW

Jessica has a Master’s Degree in Social Work, and an undergraduate degree in psychology from Troy University.  She joins private practice after over 4 years in Corrections where she provided mental health services to incarcerated individuals.  She previously worked with individuals and families involved with the Division of Family & Children Services and also partnered with the Department of Community Supervision in providing treatment to sex offenders in our community.

Jessica has addressed a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, childhood problematic sexual behavior, personality disorders, gender dysphoria, bipolar disorder, and psychotic related disorders using modalities such as CBT, Reality Therapy, a person-centered approach, and The Boundary Project.  She is a trauma-informed, psychodynamic therapist, and believes we cannot move forward and heal without acknowledging how the past impacts the present.  Jessica has also recently completed Emotionally Focused Therapy training and is ready to implement this approach with couples seeking to strengthen their alliance.

Jessica is passionate about early childhood emotional regulation, parenting education, sex education, and supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
