Heal deeply. Live boldly.

Hello and Welcome!

It takes an enormous amount of courage to seek help, and I want to honor and commend you for taking this first step.  I’m Jessica Rycroft, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and EMDR-certified trauma therapist serving clients across the state of California. I currently offer both in-person and online counseling services, with in-person sessions available in the Orange County area.

Jessica Rycroft, LMFT Welcome

You may have arrived here because… 

  • You’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or grief.

  • You’ve experienced trauma, loss, or a major life transition and you’re looking for a safe, supportive space to heal and make sense of it all.

  • You give so much to others yet struggle to prioritize your own needs.

  • No matter how much you accomplish, there’s a part of you that feels, “It’s never enough. I’m not enough.”

  • You feel constantly triggered by your workplace or a supervisor and are pretty sure it has to do with unresolved childhood wounds.

  • You question your worth and lovability.

  • You long for deeper, healthier relationships, but something seems to keep getting in the way.

  • The past still feels present - certain people, places, or even times of year can feel unsafe or unexpectedly unsettling.

  • You’ve done meaningful work in traditional talk-therapy, yet some parts of you still feel stuck - like there’s more healing waiting to happen.

  • Maybe you’ve reached many of your life and career goals, yet something still feels…off. Deep down, you sense your past is playing a role - but you’re not quite sure how, or what steps to take next.

However you arrived on this page, I’m so glad you’re here.

If any part of this speaks to you, I invite you to reach out. Healing is possible - and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you take this next step.

I see you.

I offer a safe and compassionate space for you to take a heartfelt look at how your past continues to impact you – so you can begin the work of healing and start truly living.  

I see trauma work not just as a process of repair, but as an opportunity for growth. 

Working through and healing from past negative experiences allows us to be more fully present, to know in our hearts, minds, and bodies that we are truly worthy of love, joy, and success. Imagine feeling confident and grounded, trusting yourself and your choices. Imagine enjoying healthy and reciprocal relationships. Imagine no longer being triggered by the past and coping in ways that feel aligned and empowering. Imagine truly knowing - you are more than enough. These are the benefits of doing the deep, transformative work of healing,

If you are ready to take on this meaningful and important work, let’s chat!

Services

Individual Therapy
I offer one-on-one therapy sessions, either in person or online. I provide Telehealth sessions on a secure HIPAA compliant platform to anyone in the State of California. I provide in-person sessions in Irvine, California - conveniently located near the cities of Newport Beach, Tustin, and Costa Mesa. My approach is warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental, creating a space where you can feel safe, seen, and understood.

When clinically appropriate, I incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidence-based therapy that supports healing from trauma. EMDR can help you process and move through difficult experiences, whether they stem from a single event or a series of painful moments from childhood or adulthood.

Session Duration: 50 minutes

Fee: $185
