About Dr. Jarvis: About Me

Therapy for High-Functioning Adults Who Feel Depressed, Anxious, or Disconnected

You may be exhausted from constantly doing all the things—at work, at home, and in your relationships. Even though you’ve checked all the boxes with your career, relationships, family, or the life you’ve worked hard to build, you still don’t feel the fulfillment you expected. Instead of feeling energized, your days may feel draining or heavy.

Many high-achieving, over-functioning adults feel guilt or shame for not feeling happier despite their success. You might notice growing tension in relationships with people who don’t understand why you’re still struggling. When you’re used to prioritizing others, setting boundaries and advocating for yourself can feel overwhelming—and your own emotional needs often get pushed aside.

If you’re ready to stop overextending yourself, reconnect with your needs, and build a life that feels more replenishing than depleting, you’re in the right place. Mental wellness isn’t about feeling happy all the time—it’s about being able to sit with difficult emotions, navigate relationships with more ease, and trust your ability to return to steadiness.

 

​

​I work with high-functioning adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, and relational challenges. Many of my clients appear capable and successful on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.

In our work together, we focus on:

Reducing anxiety, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion

Understanding and shifting patterns related to depression, numbness, or low motivation

Strengthening boundaries and self-advocacy in relationships

Navigating interpersonal conflict with greater confidence and clarity

Creating sustainable balance between responsibility, rest, and meaning

My goal is not to “fix” you, but to help you understand why you feel the way you do—and give you practical tools to respond differently.

I use evidence-based therapy approaches tailored to your specific needs, including:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Interpersonal Therapy

Narrative and Family Systems approaches

My work is grounded, collaborative, and practical. Therapy is a space where you can slow down, understand long-standing patterns, and build self-trust—without judgment or pressure to perform. We focus on meaningful, sustainable change rather than short-term fixes.

​

​

My career has been dedicated to helping adults understand the “why” behind their emotions and develop the “how” to manage them in everyday life. I’m especially passionate about working with clients who feel responsible for everything and everyone—and are ready to learn how to care for themselves with the same intention they offer others.

Clients often describe therapy with me as supportive, honest, and grounding. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin—you just need a willingness to be curious about yourself.

​

The term psychologist can be confusing. While some clinicians hold doctoral degrees, not all are licensed psychologists. To become a licensed psychologist, an individual must complete a doctoral program, a full-time clinical internship, extensive supervised post-doctoral training, and pass both national and state licensing exams.

As a licensed psychologist, I completed five years of doctoral training focused on evidence-based therapy, assessment, and clinical practice. My internship included training in psychotherapy, neuropsychological evaluation, personality assessment, cognitive testing, and forensic work. My Psy.D. training emphasized hands-on clinical care, which aligns with my commitment to working directly with clients in therapy.

​

​​

My training includes over 6,000 hours of supervised clinical experience across multiple settings. After completing undergraduate and master’s-level training focused on research and assessment, I completed five years of doctoral training, including an APA-approved internship. Following graduation, I completed an additional year of supervised post-doctoral practice prior to licensure.

This depth of training allows me to approach therapy with both scientific rigor and human understanding.

 

 

If you’re feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or disconnected—and ready for support that’s thoughtful, practical, and grounded—I’d be glad to work with you toward your mental health goals!
