About Jessica
Jessica Edmundson is a licensed professional clinical counselor who helps people facing addiction, anxiety, depression, and stress. She works with adults coping with trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and career or parenting stress. Sessions are offered in English and tailored to each person’s situation.
Jessica uses practical, solution-focused conversation to build skills and motivation. She listens with empathy and adapts the plan to what each person needs. People can expect a respectful, compassionate approach that emphasizes small, usable steps.
How Jessica works
Her background includes 12 years of clinical work in outpatient and inpatient settings. That experience includes supporting people through substance use disorders and trauma recovery, and helping clients manage mood disorders and ADHD-related challenges. Jessica combines behavioral strategies with mindfulness and acceptance-based tools.
In sessions she often blends cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and client-centered listening. She also draws on dialectical behavior skills and motivational interviewing to address confidence, coping, and relationship patterns. The goal is practical skill-building rather than labels.
Outside of work she is a parent who enjoys outdoor activities and quiet mornings with coffee. She understands how life changes and responsibilities can affect wellbeing. Beginning therapy can feel hard, and she aims to make the first steps clearer and more manageable.

Online support options
Approach-focused online therapy and flexible sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where avoidance gets in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought and behavior patterns and trying small changes to reduce distress and improve mood. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so the person sets the pace and goals of the work.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That process might try one strategy and adjust it over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for longer therapy work when visual connection matters. Phone calls can be a lower-bandwidth option or fit during a break at work. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or use brief, focused exchanges when a quick touchpoint helps. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives.
