Jessica Heaney, AMFT
Therapist
Jessica recently joined the Azure Acres Outpatient Programs in Sebastopol. She earned her undergraduate degree from Lesley College in Boston, MA, and after a successful career in business, returned to school to pursue a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) and Professional Clinical Counseling (PCC).
Jessica takes a strengths-based approach in her work, helping clients foster personal growth and empowerment, enhance emotional regulation, clarify life goals, and improve relational skills. Her therapeutic methods draw from a variety of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment Theory, Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness techniques, and most recently, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
Outside of her professional life, Jessica has developed a passion for pickleball and plays as often as possible. She also enjoys hiking in nature with her dog Buddy, who recently passed his Canine Good Citizenship Test.
