Jessica Weinstock, LCSW

Hello! I’m deeply passionate about the empowering journey of therapy. Together, we’ll identify what’s keeping you stuck and explore tools that foster meaningful, lasting change.

I specialize in anxiety, depression and related mood disorders, as well as substance use, addiction, and recovery. I provide individual therapy, coaching sessions for those outside of CA, and I lead a Recovery Support Group for those who are in sustained remission from substance use disorders. Additional areas of expertise include boundaries, codependency, communication in relationships, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, harsh self-criticism, inner child healing, life transitions, mindfulness, people pleasing, rumination, and self-esteem. 

Therapy modalities

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is helpful for identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns that influence emotions and behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. It’s especially supportive for people who feel emotions intensely, struggle with impulsivity, or want tools to navigate conflict and overwhelming feelings.

Problem-Focused Therapy (PFT) helps a person directly address the stressor. It’s useful for developing clear strategies such as identifying the root of a problem, brainstorming solutions, evaluating options, and creating an action plan.

Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) centers on a person’s strengths, resources, and future goals. SFT is a structured, goal-oriented approach that highlights what’s already working and helps move toward meaningful change.

Approach

Whether you know exactly what you want out of therapy or are uncertain about your specific goals, we will work together to identify your objectives for treatment. I am committed to creating a therapeutic space that feels compassionate, empathetic, and genuine. My style is warm and interactive, and I also believe in the power of practical skills. In our work together, you can expect a balance of support and building actionable tools that you can start applying in session and take with you in your day-to-day life.

If you’re ready to take that next step toward healing and self-discovery, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
