Online support options
How Jessica's Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. The therapist reflects what is said and helps people identify their own goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping in high-stress moments.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jessica will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest a blend of techniques that fits those needs. Together they check progress and adjust the plan over time so the work stays focused and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls let people use visual cues and a more traditional session feel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing contact and quick check-ins between sessions. These options help make therapy fit into busy schedules and varied routines.
