Jessica helps clients work on body image, self-love, and recovery from substance use when these issues affect daily life.
Jessica applies a collaborative approach that honors each person’s strengths and pace. She encourages practical tools for managing panic attacks, postpartum depression, and the guilt or shame that can follow loss. People leave with clear strategies to practice between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Jessica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on building skills and changing unhelpful patterns. One common approach emphasizes skill-building for anxiety and panic - teaching breathing and grounding techniques, testing small behavioral steps, and planning responses to panic symptoms. This helps people gain more control over sudden anxiety and reduce avoidance.
Another common thread in her work is self-compassion and self-esteem work. That means identifying harsh self-talk, practicing kinder internal responses, and doing exercises that reinforce a more balanced self-view. This approach suits people working through shame, body image concerns, or low self-worth.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they will adjust techniques over time based on what helps most.
