Picture
 Jessica Kaplan earned her Bachelors of Psychology degree (Cum Laude) from the University of
Massachusetts at Amherst in 2005. She completed her Masters degree in Social Work at Simmons University in 2008 secondary to interning as a school social worker at Shea High School in Pawtucket, RI and interning as social worker on the child and adolescent units at Butler Hospital in Providence, RI.  From 2008-2010 Ms. Kaplan was employed as an individual and family therapist at a local residential program (NAFI Alternatives Program) for at risk adolescents in Providence, RI. Afterwards, Ms. Kaplan worked at the RI Family Court within the Mental Health Clinic completing court ordered evaluations for youth. She simultaneously provided cognitive behavioral therapy for adolescents taking part in a research study named Project ITP and co-led groups therapies on healthy dating relationships for adolescents taking part in a research study named DateSmart.  Ms. Kaplan opened her private practice in East Greenwich, RI in 2011 where she provided treatment to children, teens and their families many of whom struggled with symptoms of ocd, various anxiety disorders or phobias. Over the years she became known for her work treating anxiety disorders and enjoyed speaking at local community centers and schools about how to both identify and manage stress and anxiety within the younger population. In 2020 Ms. Kaplan transitioned to a fully remote practice which prompted her desire to treat anxiety disorders exclusively among young adults/adults ages 18-30(ish). Her 3 dogs are beyond thrilled to have their mom work from home and often make appearances during sessions. When Ms. Kaplan isn't working she is typically relaxing or spending time with loved ones -- enjoying all the local attractions that Providence and the surrounding communities have to offer.
