Your Village Journey
Psychological & Consulting Services
Every journey is unique. We would love to be a part of yours.
YVJ is a psychology and wellness hub, led by two clinical psychologists, who get it and are here to help.
We provide a range of general and specialty services, offering high quality, individually tailored, evidence-based treatment and consultation. We know that with the right tools and guidance, joy can be found in the journey, often leading to a more fulfilling, happier life.
We believe in the power of community and in having a connected and supportive team at your side – a village.
Dr. Jennifer and Dr. Jessica are clinical psychologists, working parents, colleagues and friends.
Our passion is helping people improve their lives, enjoy more satisfying relationships, and achieve their personal or professional goals. We love what we do and we believe in it. We have seen how the power of psychology can change lives. We have also seen how difficult it is to find help and to access high-quality information about mental health and wellness.
Our vision in creating YVJ is to take what we know and share it in fun and creative ways that can be easily understood and are accessible to all. We believe that everyone has the right to mental health and wellness, and that evidence-based psychological principles should be available to anyone who wants or needs them – regardless of age, gender, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, insurance status, sexual or gender orientation, ability level, political affiliation, or citizenship.
Psychology can be powerful and transformative in many different ways – whether that be through traditional therapy, specialty consultation, speaking engagements and workshops, community events, or writing. At YVJ, we work across this spectrum and are expanding the boundaries of what psychology can do and how it can reach you.
YVJ is designed to be an inclusive community space, where we routinely share evidence-based psychological principles in easily digestible tidbits you can seamlessly incorporate into your daily life, so that anyone who wants those tools can have them.
Your Village Journey, helping you find joy in the journey, wherever you can, whenever you can.
