A therapist who truly
listens.

"Therapy is not about fixing what's broken — it's about discovering the strength, resilience, and wisdom that already lives within you."

— Jessica DeBaufer, LPC

Jessica DeBaufer, M.S., is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in the states of Arizona and Connecticut. She is the founder and owner of Willow Wood Counseling, a private practice in Scottsdale, AZ dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals of all ages.

Jessica graduated from Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science in 2015 with her Master's Degree in Clinical Counseling. Since then, she has worked in both private practice and school settings, gaining deep experience with a wide range of presenting concerns including anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship difficulties, abandonment, and mood disruptions.

She works with children, adolescents, teens, young adults, and adults of all ages. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and highly individualized — she believes that no two people are alike, and that effective therapy must be tailored to each person's unique story, strengths, and goals.

Jessica utilizes an eclectic, integrative approach to therapy, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy, Play Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Mindfulness practices.

My Philosophy

Healing is possible.
You don't have to do it alone.

Whether you are navigating a specific challenge or simply feeling stuck, Willow Wood Counseling is a place where you can come exactly as you are and leave with more clarity, strength, and hope than when you arrived.
