Professional statement

Dr. Jessica Weatherford is a clinical psychologist at Catalyst Psychology who works with adults ready to move forward—whether that means sleeping better, feeling less overwhelmed, managing anxious thoughts, or tackling focus and follow-through. She works with adults seeking focused, evidence-based support for anxiety, ADHD, OCD, and insomnia—the four specialty areas of Catalyst Psychology. Her clients are often thoughtful, motivated individuals looking for a therapist who can help them make meaningful, lasting changes.

Dr. Weatherford’s approach is structured, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), along with strategies from neuroscience and behavior change science to help clients shift unhelpful patterns and build habits that stick. Because she values the time and energy her clients invest, therapy is designed to be both efficient and effective, with most people completing a focused treatment arc in 15–30 sessions.

Jessica brings a rare blend of clinical precision and real-world insight to her work. In addition to her doctorate in clinical psychology, she holds an MBA and has led teams as an executive and strategic consultant. This allows her to understand the pressures of modern life and offer a streamlined, personalized approach that fits each client’s needs. Her clients describe her as warm, insightful, and straightforward—able to get to the heart of what matters and provide tools that create momentum.

Dr. Weatherford sees clients in person at her Newton, MA office and virtually throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire. She is currently accepting new clients and offers scheduling options that accommodate busy lives. If you’re looking for focused, evidence-based support to move forward, she’s here to help.


Message to clients

Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about building a life that works better for you. If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, you’re in the right place.

You don’t need a perfect plan or the right words to get started—just a sense that something could be better. My job is to help you clarify what’s getting in the way and give you structured, evidence-based tools to move forward. We’ll work together to understand what’s happening beneath the surface and create a clear, actionable path toward change.

Clients often tell me they appreciate my mix of humor, compassion, and insight into who they are and what they’re working toward. I aim to create a space that feels both grounded and energizing—where you feel seen and supported, but also challenged in just the right ways.

You can expect our work together to be active and collaborative. We’ll identify your goals, break them down into manageable steps, and practice strategies that actually make a difference in your daily life. I’ll bring a clear roadmap, and we’ll adapt it together to fit your needs, pace, and personality. I want you to leave each session feeling more than just supported, I aim for you to leave feeling equipped.

Our work is designed to equip you with proven tools, lasting change, and the clarity to move forward with confidence—long after therapy ends.
