I am Dr. Jessica Roy, a licensed clinical psychologist (PSY 36299), researcher, and writer based in California. I currently work primarily in private practice and offer psychoanalytically-informed psychotherapy for individuals and couples.
I view therapeutic work as an invitation to turn towards the areas of our lives that are calling to us for some attention. Sometimes this means the challenging, confusing, painful, and mysterious parts of life. Other times it may mean exploring our connection to sense of self, our desires, creativity, and vitality. Therapy helps us to consider where we would like to grow, change, and heal - within a safe-enough space based in curiosity and connection. I take the whole person's lived context into consideration, including social, cultural, economic, and systemic forces that influence our sense of wellbeing.

While I see and treat all sorts of folks and presentations, I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating the intersection of identity, life transition, purpose, and mental health concerns. Additionally, I have specific expertise in working with women and mothers struggling with the feeling of burnout associated with carrying the mental, relational, and domestic loads within their lives and families.

While I utilize various modalities based on each person's needs, I approach my work from a depth-oriented, psychoanalytically-informed, existential perspective. I am a feminist, inclusive therapist dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for all individuals, where respect, understanding, and acceptance of diverse identities and experiences are at the core of our work together.
A depth-oriented approach to therapy focuses on exploring the underlying emotional, psychological, and unconscious processes that shape a person’s thoughts, behaviors, and experiences. We spend time considering the context of your lived experience and current situation, and explore how you think about, reflect on, and make meaning of both your inner and outer worlds.

I encourage you to schedule a free phone consultation - this is a great time for you to share more about what you are experiencing, learn more about my practice, ask any questions you may have, and see if speaking with me feels like a good relational fit.

I am considered an In-Network provider with Aetna insurance and Out-of-Network for all other insurance. I provide a monthly superbill for sessions and educate patients on how best to utilize their Out-of-Network benefits to receive reimbursement. In my experience, many PPO insurance plans reimburse a significant amount of the session fee. For those paying out of pocket, I offer sliding scale fees to those experiencing financial hardship.

I am currently offering virtual Telehealth sessions to all California residents.
