Background and approach
She uses straightforward tools to manage symptoms, build coping skills, and improve day-to-day functioning. Conversations move at the client’s pace and focus on what is useful now. Her approach draws on Attachment-based therapy alongside evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance strategies.
Jessica combines these with client-centered and dialectical ideas to help people understand patterns and try new ways of relating and coping. She aims to make therapy clear and applicable to daily life. Jessica has worked across community, residential, and outpatient settings.
Over two decades she has supported people with complex histories, including those who have experienced intimate partner violence, addiction, eating disorders, and trauma-related symptoms. That background informs a practical, steady style in session. In sessions she offers skills coaching, emotion regulation tools, and chances to process painful experiences when needed.
The goal is to reduce distress and help people feel more capable, connected, and able to move forward.

Online support
Attachment-informed and skills-based care online
Attachment-based work focuses on understanding patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current emotions and trust. This approach helps when feeling abandoned, disconnected, or struggling with intimacy-related issues.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people name values, accept difficult feelings, and take actions that matter. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing chronic stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit, and adjust plans as needed. Sessions blend listening, skill teaching, and reflection so the approach evolves with progress and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, skill practice, or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
