About Jessica
Jessica focuses on practical talk and problem-solving in sessions. She listens to what matters most and helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors. Sessions address communication problems, codependency, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation or jealousy in straightforward ways.
Her approach draws on several evidence-based methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She also uses attachment-based and client-centered ideas to help people understand how relationships affect their feelings and choices. In plain terms, that means working on what matters, testing small changes, and learning new ways to respond when old patterns show up.
Jessica is comfortable addressing substance use concerns including drug and alcohol addiction and the related family and co-morbidity issues that often follow. She also helps people process guilt, shame, and forgiveness so they can move forward without getting stuck in the past.
To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Sessions are provided in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

How Jessica’s approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking steps that match those values. It helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about what matters next by shifting attention from avoiding unpleasant thoughts to meaningful action.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It teaches practical skills to test unhelpful thoughts and build different habits for anxiety, depression, and low motivation.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete tools for regulating intense emotions and reducing impulsive behaviors. It can be useful for managing self-destructive urges and improving emotional stability.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can be adjusted as sessions progress, with concrete skill practice and regular check-ins.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people try different session rhythms while keeping the focus on practical skills and relationship patterns.
