Jess Llamas, MA

Mental Health Counselor

Hi there! My name is Jess, and I am a mental health clinician at Northeast Health Services in West Springfield, MA.

I bring 3+ years of experience providing services in an inpatient and outpatient capacity. I believe effective therapy begins with a strong therapeutic relationship, grounded in trust and acceptance. Whatever circumstances brought you to therapy, my ultimate goal is to help you reach the best version of yourself. In our work together, we will explore what that looks like and figure out how to get there. I value collaborating with clients to achieve their goals and empowering them to reclaim control of their lives.

I use an eclectic, strengths-based, person-centered approach, drawing fro

m modalities including, but not limited to, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My typical client may be navigating trauma, life transitions, or seeking to improve their quality of life and relationships.

Maya Angelou once said, “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” I believe this sentiment is deeply reflected in the therapeutic relationships I have built with clients over time. I am proud you made it here, and I hope to partner with you on your journey to healing.
