Jessica Lizardo, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker in private practice in California who blends somatic therapy, creative expression, and evidence-based practices to help clients heal and grow. Jessica works with children, teens, and adults to address trauma, anxiety, and emotional challenges through a mind-body approach that integrates movement, creativity, and connection.
Combining her passions for yoga, Pilates, art, and music with therapeutic modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and play therapy, Jessica helps clients access healing on both physical and emotional levels. She believes that movement can open the door to emotional release and transformation, allowing clients to move through stuck patterns and rediscover balance and self-acceptance.
Jessica’s approach is warm, holistic, and trauma-informed, creating a safe and collaborative space where clients can explore their stories, reconnect with their bodies, and cultivate resilience. Whether guiding a child through playful expression, helping a teen regulate emotions, or supporting an adult in processing past experiences, Jessica empowers clients to heal through both movement and mindfulness.
