Support for the growth that happens behind the scenes — the work no one applauds, but that changes everything

Welcome!

Hi, I’m Jessica, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and the founder of Quiet Growth Counseling.

I provide virtual therapy to adults in New York (with New Jersey services pending), working with young adults through older adults. I support people navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, and substance or alcohol use — especially when those challenges show up alongside caregiving, parenthood, or major identity shifts.

I have a particular focus on parents, new moms, and individuals navigating pregnancy or postpartum. As a mom of two young girls myself, I understand how full, emotional, and overwhelming life can feel — especially when you’re caring for others while trying to keep yourself afloat.

Quiet Growth Counseling was created as a space where you don’t have to rush, perform, or have everything figured out. Therapy here is meant to feel steady and supportive — a place to pause, reconnect, and grow quietly, at your own pace.

How I can support you

I work with individuals who may be experiencing:

  • Anxiety, chronic stress, and feeling overwhelmed

  • Pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood

  • Substance or alcohol use concerns

  • Bipolar disorder and mood-related challenges

  • Life transitions, identity shifts, and emotional burnout

I also have experience supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, memory impairment, severe mental illness, and substance use disorders. I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds and believe therapy should meet you where you are — not where you think you should be.

My approach

My approach is person-centered and grounded in real, human connection. I focus on helping you feel supported and understood, while moving at a pace that actually feels sustainable in real life.

Therapy with me is collaborative and conversational, with room for honesty, reflection, and humor when it fits. You don’t need the right words, a neat timeline, or a clear plan from day one.

We don’t force growth here. We let it happen — steadily, intentionally, and on your terms.

What to expect

  • Individual therapy for adults

  • 100% virtual sessions

  • A supportive, non-judgmental environment

  • Practical tools when helpful, and space to process when needed

You don’t need a “perfect reason” to start therapy. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just needing support, that’s enough.

Insurance & payment

Quiet Growth Counseling accepts many major insurance plans through third-party platforms such as Headway, Grow, and Talkspace. Private pay sessions are $150.

I’m happy to help verify insurance coverage during our initial communication and answer any questions you may have about payment options.

Get in touch

If you’re interested in starting therapy or have questions about availability or services, I’d love to hear from you.
