Jessica Valladares, MS, LPC, LMHC - Owner and Therapist

I started Nurture Counseling because I care deeply about supporting people through life’s big changes, especially the ones that come with pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. Becoming a therapist wasn’t just something I studied in school. It comes from my own experiences navigating life’s messy and overwhelming seasons. I know what it’s like to feel stretched thin, uncertain, or just plain exhausted. I wanted to create a space where people could feel seen, heard, and not judged.

I work with individuals and parents who are trying to find their footing while life feels like it is moving too fast. Whether you are expecting, adjusting to life after a baby, or just trying to keep all the pieces together, my goal is to help you find clarity and a little bit of ease along the way. Therapy is not about doing everything perfectly. It is about showing up as you are and figuring out what helps you feel more like yourself again.

I also have advanced training to provide psychological evaluations for immigration cases, and I approach this work with the same compassion, cultural humility, and respect that guide all of my clinical care.
