Jessalyn Scotten is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and Associate Professional Clinical Counselor who brings both professional expertise and personal healing experience to her work with couples and individuals navigating life's most challenging circumstances.

With a specialized focus on couples therapy, trauma recovery through EMDR, and anxiety treatment, she creates a compassionate therapeutic environment where clients can explore their deepest struggles while developing the tools needed for lasting transformation. Jessalyn particularly enjoys working with couples who are seeking to work through conflicts and improve communication to reconnect, as well as individuals healing from trauma so they can move forward with peace of mind.

Her therapeutic approach integrates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Somatic Therapy, and Solution-Focused techniques. This comprehensive framework allows her to address both relationship dynamics and individual healing needs with depth and precision. For couples, Jessalyn helps partners gain a deeper understanding of each other, improve communication skills, and resolve future conflicts in positive, supportive ways. Her EMDR expertise enables her to help trauma survivors process difficult experiences while building greater confidence, self-value, and deep internal peace.

With specialized training in EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Somatic Therapy, Jessalyn brings evidence-based expertise to her clinical practice. Her education has equipped her with advanced skills for addressing complex trauma presentations, relationship dynamics, and anxiety disorders through multiple therapeutic modalities. This diverse training background enables her to work effectively with a wide range of presenting concerns, from depression and self-esteem challenges to sexual betrayals and life transitions, while maintaining a focus on root cause resolution rather than symptom management alone.

Outside the therapy room, Jessalyn finds renewal and balance through quality time with friends and family, understanding the vital importance of meaningful relationships in maintaining mental health and overall well-being. She has a deep connection with nature, particularly drawn to the ocean and other bodies of water that provide grounding and peace. Jessalyn enjoys the meditative practice of canning preserves and goods, camping adventures that connect her with the natural world, and quiet moments reading good books that feed her continuous learning and personal growth.
