Dr. Jessica Temple

Dr. Jessica Temple is a psychologist licensed in Pennsylvania and Virginia with 12 years of professional experience. She describes herself as a clinical rehabilitation neuropsychologist and lists stress, anxiety, sleep problems, parenting concerns, compassion fatigue, and ADHD among her core focus areas. She also notes experience with chronic illness, traumatic brain injury, concentration and memory issues, and life purpose questions.

She uses practical strategies to help people manage daily challenges. Sessions often involve learning ways to handle anxiety, improve sleep routines, and manage the effects of health conditions on thinking and mood. She works in straightforward language and helps people practice skills between meetings.

Her background includes rehabilitation neuropsychology, so she brings experience with cognitive problems after injury or illness. That experience informs how she assesses concentration and memory concerns and how she sets realistic goals for recovery or compensation strategies.

Dr. Temple uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques. These methods are used to change unhelpful thinking patterns, increase psychological flexibility, and build emotion regulation skills.

She practices in Virginia and offers services in English. Sessions are organized through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first appointment is scheduled using the online therapy options button.

People looking for help with life purpose or workplace stress will find a clinician who combines rehabilitation-focused experience with skills-based therapies to address everyday functioning and direction.

How ACT, CBT and DBT inform online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and learning to act in ways that matter despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It can help when someone feels stuck about direction, purpose, or ongoing worry.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that maintain anxiety or sleep problems. It is often used for stress, insomnia, and work-related concerns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be helpful for intense emotions, compassion fatigue, and managing conflicts that affect daily functioning.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will help clients choose which methods to try based on their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as sessions progress. This collaborative process helps identify what is most useful in practice.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to continue work after a health setback or caregiving period. Ask about options when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be planned to fit everyday life.
