Integrative Psychotherapist & Relationship Counselor @ Head + Heart Integrative Psychotherapy

Are you ready to navigate the challenges of being human with greater resilience? As an integrative psychotherapist and relationship counselor, I specialize in supporting adults, couples, and groups to heal relationships on all levels. Including their relationships with stress, chronic illness/pain, family of origin issues, and trauma.

Combining research-informed practices with revolutionary brain + relationship science, I work from an integrative “head + heart” approach that incorporates mind, body, and spirit to help you increase resilience, release emotional baggage, and ignite holistic healing. Hence, the name of my practice – Head + Heart Integrative Psychotherapy. I believe that only by working from a holistic perspective can we truly experience deep healing and lasting change.

My practice of psychotherapy and counseling integrates relationship science (Attachment Theory, Systems Theory, Gottman Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and Relational Life Therapy), neuroscience (Interpersonal Neurobiology, Polyvagal Theory), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Somatic therapy, EMDR therapy, depth psychology and parts work, and trauma-informed interventions.

I am now accepting new clients for secure online therapy for Texas residents and offer free 15 min phone consults. You can learn more about me and my practice at www.headandheart-therapy.com

Counselor / Psychotherapist

I specialize in helping individuals with life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, personal and spiritual growth.

As a Heart-Centered psychotherapist, I view each individual’s journey through a lens of compassion, curiosity, and acceptance.

I love helping people cultivate a deeper, kinder, more supportive relationship with themselves and helping to shift conditioning and beliefs around this being “overindulgent” and/or “selfish.”

Using an Integrative Approach, I make room for all parts of our humanness, physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual. I work from an attachment-based, and trauma-informed foundation and draw on several therapeutic methods to assist with building tools and resources that are supportive, insight-oriented and focused on creating deep, lasting change. Primary therapeutic methods I draw from are:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Inner child/reparenting work
• Internal Parts work
• Neurobiology
• Mindfulness practices
• Somatic awareness
• Depth oriented therapy
• Existential inquiry
• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

I consider each person’s unique life experiences, worldview and nervous system while exploring and connecting with the resilience, gifts, and truth that lie within their own body and brain. The choice to seek psychotherapy can be a journey in and of itself – it takes courage and strength to ask for support. I’m continuously awed and inspired by my client’s courage, vulnerability, and resilience. Embarking on the journey to be seen, look within, let go of the past, heal and grow, with time, opens more space within our bodies and minds to connect with our true selves and experiences of connectedness, joy, peace, clarity, ease and well being.

I work with clients throughout the state of TX and currently offer in-person and virtual sessions. You can learn more about me and my practice at JenniferPaap.com

Jessie’s passion is the intersection of science, relationships, wellness, and spirituality. Her clinical training emphasized interpersonal neurobiology, attachment, mindfulness, body based trauma techniques, and holistic nutrition. She has professional experience in hospital, non-profit, and outpatient mental health organizations. Her passion for wellness and counseling drew her to the social work field where she specialized in trauma, cognitive behavioral therapy, family dynamics, and she became a self-identified neuroscience junky. Jessie loves the brain and frequently incorporates scientific topics into her practice. She encourages her clients with research about neurogenesis, rewiring, and neuro anatomy to help them understand that their brains, relationships, and life can change for the better.

Throughout her time in clinical practice, Jessie underwent additional training to become a Trust Based Relational Intervention Practitioner (TBRI), to be Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing trained (EMDR), and then she completed a 12 month Nutrition Coaching program with the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. These programs are central to her work with clients.

Jessie is one who believes that personal experience is often the best education. Her own wellness journeys of healing from untreated celiac disease and other injuries bring a wealth of knowledge, insight, and empathy to individuals who are fighting to live life more abundantly. Jessie’s dream of aligning her business, mental health, and wellness backgrounds was realized with the launch of her Integrative Brain and Mental Health organization. She feels immensely honored to walk with individuals for a short period in their journey as she lives out her mission of supporting change makers as they live out their dreams and potential.
