About Jessica
Jessica Brousseau is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut. She has three years of counseling experience and brings a calm, practical style to sessions. Jessica focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, relationship challenges, and life transitions.
She works with people struggling with grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Her practice also includes support for LGBT concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, career worries, anger, and compassion fatigue.
How Jessica works
Jessica aims to match strategies to each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Jessica uses an integrative approach that pulls from evidence-based techniques. She combines solution-focused ideas, cognitive behavioral ways of thinking, and a strengths-based perspective to find what helps most.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with practical tools to try between meetings. Her background includes graduate training in school counseling from the University of Saint Joseph in West Hartford, Connecticut. That training and her clinical work inform a straightforward approach that emphasizes small, trackable steps toward change.
Parents and individuals who want clear direction, practical coping skills, and empathetic support often find her approach useful. Jessica encourages people to take the first step and plans sessions around each person’s goals and pace.

How Jessica Uses Evidence-Based Techniques Online
Jessica draws on solution-focused approaches that help people identify small, concrete goals and steps to move forward. This method is useful for stress, life transitions, and situations where quick, practical change is a priority.She also uses cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people notice and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT-style work often includes simple exercises and experiments to practice between sessions, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood over time.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jessica will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past, then recommend strategies to try together. The plan can change as needed to fit what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people meet. Video calls allow fuller conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between sessions.
