Transform Your Relationship with Expert Guidance and Proven Strategies

RELATIONSHIP AS A JOURNEY

When the bond with our significant other is positive, healthy and secure, we are greatly benefited. 

With a healthy connection, we are able to face life challenges more resourced, and in general, we are more resilient, stronger and capable. 

Scientific outcomes provide evidence (of what we already know through experience): 

  • We experience less pain when feeling the comfort and contact of a loving, significant other.

  • We assess challenges like climbing a mountain less difficult and feel more confident about our abilities, when we are with our loving, significant other. 

  • Our nervous systems are better able to regulate, and our systems are boosted and benefited when in connection with our significant other. 

THE QUALITY OF CONNECTION IS ESSENTIAL FOR HEALTH & WELLBEING

If your relationship causes you stress, pain and heartache, learn how to get support here.

"I came to Dr. Higgins roughly 6 months before my wedding as I needed support on familial circumstances and my relationship with my fiancé. I signed up for a 1-1 coaching sessions package after finding her podcast, Empowered Relationships. I’m across the country, so our sessions were virtual. My favorite part about working with Dr. Higgins was her empathetic nature, she listens carefully, non-judgmentally, and can truly relate and understand my circumstances to the point where I felt fully safe and comfortable in conversation. This led to more vulnerability which I believe led to more healing for me personally throughout our sessions. She has an incredible perspective and can completely change the way you look at something by posing insightful questions and scenarios that I’d never before considered. It helped me to understand the patterns in my own behavior and the “why” behind them. This helped me to let go of some burdens I was carrying and learn to explain myself more effectively to my fiancé when conflict arises. Dr. Higgins also added value beyond sessions by recommending research-based reading materials, videos, and other resources from her website and podcast, all of which I devoured and helped me between coaching sessions to continue on my healing path. I appreciate the opportunity to look at things differently, understand myself better, and the ways she showed me how to relate and converse better with my family and fiancé even months after therapy as I’m writing this. I’ve gained more confidence in myself through working with Dr. Higgins. She truly has a great heart and extends that openly to others through her work.”

“Quite simply, Jessica saved our marriage. My wife and I had gone from being a couple that had a seemingly rock solid and enviable relationship to the brink of divorce. My wife stumbled upon Jessica’s podcast and we decided to start working with her as a last-ditch attempt to save our relationship after failing with a previous attempt at couples therapy. Jessica was able to build trust with both of us and to uncover the underlying causes of our relationship issues within a few sessions. Over the next few months, she was able to work with us to expose our recurring patterns and coach us on modifying our behaviors to allow us to reclaim our marriage. Much of the work was painful but Jessica helped us to uncover deep wounds and deal with them openly and honestly. She taught us new ways of communicating and helped us remember why we love each other. Our relationship now feels strong and authentic. Even months after ending our sessions with Jessica, the stress that once permeated our household has disappeared and we both feel secure and comfortable with our bond. We cannot recommend Jessica more highly. She is extremely empathetic, caring, and has a way of understanding each person’s point of view without taking sides. We once thought our relationship was doomed. Thanks to Jessica’s help and guidance, we feel like we have resurrected our marriage and saved our family.”

I love working with Dr. Jessica Higgins. I feel that she truly cares about her work and helping her clients. I have experience with other therapists and psychologists, but have not had the same supportive and life-changing experience as with Dr. Higgins. I do feel that she understands and is able to guide her clients well.

In a world of social media and so many opinions, I found it difficult to find clarity. Dr. Higgins is very knowledgeable and knows how to tailor the coaching to fit the client; therefore, with her guidance, I was able to connect with myself and find clarity from a place that felt right for me.

I now feel more connected to myself and in my relationship. Through coaching, I was also able to identify tools that could help mitigate and navigate challenges in my relationship. I implemented these, and they have changed my relationship. I am very grateful for her guidance and knowledge. I would definitely recommend Dr. Higgins to anyone seeking a deeper connection with themselves and in their relationship.

“The Dalai Lama said, “Just as ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped into water, the actions of individuals can have far-reaching effects.” Dr. Jessica Higgins has been that proverbial pebble for my husband and me in our relationship. She enabled a healing process where not only were tools given to reopen lines of communication but inroads were made towards understanding one another. Once the huge obstacles were hurdled relationally, she gave us a framework for first, taking personal responsibility by recognizing triggers within ourselves then, triggers between one another. This has helped us handle conflicts and moved us towards encouraging/nurturing our love for one another. We are grateful to Dr. Jessica’s work with us and happily still living within these ripple effects as our marriage continues to grow and deepen.”

"I couldn't speak more highly of Jessica. It seems a main factor in the healthy development of our emotional being is the availability of a safe space through which we can be open and vulnerable to actually do the necessary work to effect positive change in our lives. It is difficult enough to offer this space to ourselves, let alone share it with another person. Jessica manages to assist in the development of both. Through her warm, confident and compassionate presence Jessica creates this ideal space while her wisdom and skill assists in the development of a personal internal space of openness and non judgment where it is okay to be vulnerable, to be oneself. Simply, Jessica has helped me to honor my highest self in all that I do. And most importantly, in all that I create in this life."

"Working with Dr Jessica Higgins was such a valuable experience for my partner and I. We were at a crossroads in our relationship and had difficulty "seeing" each other's pain when having conflict. Dr Jesscia was able to help soften both of us quite quickly so we could turn toward each other with compassion and new insights about how the other's defenses were just a reaction from learned behaviors to protect from further hurt. We both learned that we wanted the same thing... heartfelt connection and more ease with each other. Although we needed to create more space between us due to certain life circumstances, we still are in relationship with each other and now have much more peace between us by actively using helpful tools we learned from Dr Jessica in our communication. I have learned so much about myself and feel confident that I can face hard conversations without wanting to just give up by regulating my own emotions and staying present and calmly stating my needs and wants.

I’ve gained more confidence in myself through working with Dr. Higgins. She truly has a great heart and extends that openly to others through her work.”

"I couldn't speak more highly of Jessica. It seems a main factor in the healthy development of our emotional being is the availability of a safe space through which we can be open and vulnerable to actually do the necessary work to effect positive change in our lives. It is difficult enough to offer this space to ourselves, let alone share it with another person. Jessica manages to assist in the development of both. Through her warm, confident and compassionate presence Jessica creates this ideal space while her wisdom and skill assists in the development of a personal internal space of openness and non judgment where it is okay to be vulnerable, to be oneself. Simply, Jessica has helped me to honor my highest self in all that I do. And most importantly, in all that I create in this life."

"I have worked with Jessica on and off for over a decade during different periods of my life when I needed support for anxiety.   Most recently, Jessica helped me process my grief surrounding the death of a loved one.  Through the work we did, I was able to work through the grief and loss.  Therapy helped me feel grounded, at peace, and to see joy in life, even with the inevitable uncertainties and loss that we all will experience.  Thank you, Jessica, for being such a support to me over the years!"

“We have been working with Dr. Jessica Higgins for nearly six years, and cannot recommend her more highly. Jessica has helped us to gain a new “language” for our marriage, and has helped us to see ourselves more clearly, along with how our individual patterns and upbringing inform our relationship with one another. Jessica has served as a guide in navigating a new frontier for our relationship. The first five years of our marriage have brought with them a tremendous amount of change in our respective lives, and Jessica has helped us to navigate these seasons of change with a solid foundation, clarity, and love.”

"I began sessions with Dr Jessica Higgins shortly after a fairly traumatic and unexpected breakup of a 38 year marriage. She was wonderfully compassionate, assisting me as I unraveled what had happened, and worked out how to move forward in a positive and practical way. She was instrumental in my healing process. She has a lot of relationship knowledge and brought this expertise to my sessions. I would highly recommend her as not only an insightful therapist, but also as a truly genuine person."

“I can't say enough about Dr. Jessica Higgins’ relationship guidance and advice. Her support has been instrumental and has helped transformed how I show up in my relationship. My relationship is stronger now, and I am not sure we would have had the same outcome without the knowledge and insight Dr. Jessica Higgins. I feel more empowered in myself and my relationship because of her help. Thank you!.”

“My relationship has completely changed through working with Jessica. She was equally attentive and took the time to hear both myself and my partners history and point of view. After thoroughly getting to know us she was able to get down to the core of our actual needs and desires and gave us the tools to do this outside of our sessions as well to create a safe and understanding dynamic. I’m so grateful for Jessica’s patience and guidance.”

"My husband and I started seeing Dr. Jessica after the birth of our second child, when it was clear that finding time and space to connect and communicate may be more difficult. Together we have found common language for our conflict cycles, and Dr. Jessica has given us the gift of understanding each other’s deeply rooted patterns and motivations. We have recommended her to dozens of friends and colleagues—any couple would be sure to benefit greatly from time spent with Dr. Jessica!"

I love working with Dr. Jessica Higgins. I feel that she truly cares about her work and helping her clients. I have experience with other therapists and psychologists, but have not had the same supportive and life-changing experience as with Dr. Higgins. I do feel that she understands and is able to guide her clients well.

In a world of social media and so many opinions, I found it difficult to find clarity. Dr. Higgins is very knowledgeable and knows how to tailor the coaching to fit the client; therefore, with her guidance, I was able to connect with myself and find clarity from a place that felt right for me.

I now feel more connected to myself and in my relationship. Through coaching, I was also able to identify tools that could help mitigate and navigate challenges in my relationship. I implemented these, and they have changed my relationship. I am very grateful for her guidance and knowledge. I would definitely recommend Dr. Higgins to anyone seeking a deeper connection with themselves and in their relationship.
