I’m Jessica Wade, a licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Supervisor in Ohio, and I have been practicing relationship-based counseling since 2010. I also hold a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with High Honors from Oral Roberts University, which shaped the way I understand relationships, family systems, communication, conflict, and repair.

My work is centered on helping couples and families find clarity during some of the most important transitions in their lives. I have specialized training in Gottman’s Bringing Baby Home program, which supports couples as they adjust to the emotional and relational changes that come with becoming parents. I also use tools such as the Gottman Relationship Checkup to help couples better understand what is working, what is hurting, and where meaningful change may be possible.

Many couples come to me when their marriage feels distressed, uncertain, or stuck. They may have already tried to improve things, but still feel unsure about whether to keep working on the relationship, take space, or consider separation. My role is not to pressure couples toward one outcome. Instead, I help each partner slow down, speak honestly, understand the relationship more clearly, and find confidence in the next best step.

I bring a calm, structured, and compassionate approach to difficult conversations. Whether you are trying to reconnect, preparing for a major family transition, or deciding what the future of your relationship should look like, I provide a steady place to sort through the complexity with care and clarity.
