Hello,

I am Dr. Jaeger and I welcome you to my practice. I look forward to sitting with you, hearing your story, and developing a plan to help you with your concerns and needs.

I have 6 years of experience treating at risk kids, teens, families, and adults in other therapeutic capacities. I'm trained in Somatic and Attachment Focused EMDR Therapy. I utilize an attachment & trauma lens to help kiddos and families. I also use those modalities as well as to help you uncover and resolve those deeper wounds that are connected to how we live life in the present. I also engage in using other evidenced-based practices to help reduce the symptoms that are keeping you from who you want to be.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and depression. My goal is to help you find relief and build the skills you need to thrive. I believe therapy should feel supportive and tailored to your unique needs.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) beginning my career as an ER nurse in 2007. I specialize in helping adults and teens with ADHD understand their symptoms, improve focus and organization, and build confidence through ADHD evaluations and medication management.

Many of my clients are busy professionals, parents, and students who struggle with inattention, restlessness, or feeling “stuck.” My goal is to help you develop clarity, structure, and balance so you can feel more in control of your life. I also treat anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, which often overlap with ADHD, using an integrated and evidence-based approach.

I provide telehealth psychiatric care throughout California — including Sacramento, Folsom, Roseville, the Bay Area, Modesto, Fresno, and Southern California — through Grace Mental Health Resources, offering accessible, compassionate, and individualized treatment from the comfort of your home.

My work centers on trauma‐informed care, substance use, sexual abuse victims and offenders, crisis intervention, and forensic experiences.

I am a person-centered therapist who creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where you are seen and heard. Together we will build practical coping skills and explore your values and strengths so you can navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience
