Welcome to Therapy with Jerah, a counseling practice dedicated to providing compassionate and professional support to individuals, families, and communities. Our mission is to empower individuals to take charge of their mental health, build strong relationships, and live a fulfilling life.
As a Greenville native, I, Jerah, have always been passionate about creating healthy communities and building cohesive families. My formative years in San Diego surfing, learning Spanish, and being exposed to West Coast Culture, anchored my soul to the pursuit of authenticity and honesty. Through my experiences working in Young Life, I recognized the need for teenagers and young adults to have someone to trust, laugh with, and process through difficult and uncertain times.
I returned to school in 2010 to pursue my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, where I fell in love with the field of mental health. Since then, I have worked in community-based programs, serving ages 10-25, providing early intervention and prevention for early signs of psychosis. I have also advocated for mental health awareness and resources within the San Diego community.
As a bilingual counselor, I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I have also received training in Motivational Interviewing and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
