1.
Individual Therapy
Feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in survival mode? Individual therapy offers a safe, compassionate space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin healing from trauma, addiction, grief, infertility, emotional abuse, and more. Using a trauma-informed, person-centered approach, we’ll explore the parts of you that need care — not fixing.
2.
Couples
Therapy
When life’s challenges leave you feeling like strangers instead of partners, couples therapy offers a space to reconnect. Whether you're navigating addiction, betrayal, trauma, infertility, grief, or emotional disconnection, we’ll work together to rebuild trust, improve communication, and restore emotional safety — one honest conversation at a time.
3.
Couples
Intensive Therapy
When traditional therapy isn’t enough, Couples Intensive Therapy offers a transformative five-day experience to help you rebuild your relationship. Whether you’re dealing with addiction, betrayal, or simply feeling disconnected, this immersive approach provides the time and focus needed to create lasting change. We’ll dive deep into communication, conflict resolution, intimacy, and shared meaning with the Gottman Method and experiential techniques.
4.
Family
Therapy
Families go through challenges that can leave everyone feeling disconnected, whether it’s a difficult transition, addiction, grief, or emotional struggles. Family therapy offers a space for healing, helping to rebuild trust, improve communication, and strengthen your family’s foundation. Through trauma-informed and experiential approaches, we’ll work together to create a resilient, supportive family system.
About A Strand of Hope Counseling
At A Strand of Hope Counseling, we believe healing begins with authenticity, deep connection, and the safety to be fully seen. Our work is grounded in core values — vulnerability, trust, growth, structure, and hope — that shape every part of the therapeutic experience. We offer integrative, trauma-informed therapy for individuals, couples, and families navigating life’s most painful and transformative moments. From individual work rooted in somatic and IFS practices, to couples counseling using the Gottman Method, to immersive intensive therapy and family sessions that honor every voice in the room — our approach is relational, experiential, and deeply compassionate. Whether you’re seeking reconnection, recovery, or rediscovery, this is a space to heal with intention, and to grow forward — together.
Meet Your Therapist

Jessica Elliott is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate who supports individuals, couples, and families through infidelity, addiction, infertility, trauma, grief, and disconnection. Jessica combines clinical training — including Gottman Method Level 2 and certifications in couples and addiction recovery — with her own lived experience to create a space where clients feel truly seen. Her approach blends somatic, IFS-informed, and experiential methods to support deep emotional healing and reconnection. Jessica is deeply committed to building safety in the therapy room — because she knows what it’s like to sit in one that didn’t feel safe. Here, you can show up fully, and begin the work of becoming more grounded, whole, and connected.
Our Therapeutic
Approach
At A Strand of Hope Counseling, our approach to therapy begins with a simple but powerful foundation: healing happens when you feel safe enough to show up as your full, authentic self. Having experienced what it’s like to sit in a therapy room that didn’t feel safe, I’m committed to creating the kind of space I once needed—one where there’s room for vulnerability, imperfection, and real connection. Therapy here isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about doing the deeper work together with honesty, curiosity, and compassion. I use an integrative, trauma-informed approach that includes the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused and Experiential therapies, Somatic practices, IFS, and Family Systems work—tailored to your unique story. Whether you're coming in as an individual, a couple, or a family, this is a place where all parts of you are welcome, and where healing starts with being truly seen.
Your Journey to Healing and Connection
If you're seeking help, Jessica is here to support you. Together, we'll explore the deep themes of relationships, personal growth, healing from trauma, and navigating life’s most complex challenges. Whether it's finding deeper intimacy, healing from past wounds, or rebuilding trust and connection, Jessica provides a compassionate space to work through the unique struggles you face. Reach out today to begin your path toward a more connected, authentic life.
