My name is Jessica Barron, and I am currently completing my Master's level internship at Healing Haven under the supervision of Mel Shannon. I am pursuing my credentials through the University of the Cumberlands and anticipate graduating on May 2, 2026, as a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A).

For the past five years, I have served as a special educator within the public education system, specializing in Learning and Behavior Disorders with a focus on adolescents experiencing emotional and behavioral challenges. My special education experience includes developing and implementing individualized education & behavioral plans for individuals with diagnoses such as: ADHD, ODD, OCD, IED, Anxiety, Autism Spectrum Disorder (& more). 

Driven by the increasing need for mental health resources observed during my teaching career, I am dedicated to supporting clients of all ages! Please note that as I am currently teaching, my primary availability for sessions is during after-school hours. I look forward to the opportunity to grow with you on your individual journey.
