Hi there, My name is Jessica Ateman and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing for nearly 14 years now. My specialties include pediatric behavioral health, integrated behavioral health and trauma informed care. I enjoy working with families and am bilingual English/Spanish. On my free time I really enjoy running, art, and spending time with those I love. A fun fact about me is that I grew up in Alaska! Growing up in a a rural state, meant learning a lot about how to take care of your mental health, and I hope to pass that information on to other families, to help support their needs at any given time. My goal as a therapist is to meet you where you are and join you on your journey. You will always be the pilot. During the assessment process you determine your goals and we will develop a plan to meet said goals. While it's a collaborative process, it's my hope that your working towards your goals leads to increased confidence, joy and hope. In terms of specialization, I approach all treatment from a trauma informed perspective. Please reach out with any questions!
