About Jessica

Jessica Caraballo is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maine. She has 14 years of professional experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and parenting challenges. Jessica uses clear, practical language and a respectful bedside manner to help people take the first steps toward change.

She focuses on common life pressures like work stress, low self-esteem, motivation and career difficulties. Jessica also addresses trauma, grief, addiction concerns, and issues around intimacy.

Background and approach

Her approach is to listen first, then shape the conversations to each person’s needs. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. Jessica mixes evidence-based strategies with a client-centered stance so people feel heard while they learn tools for coping.

She emphasizes small, doable steps rather than sudden, dramatic shifts. Jessica pays attention to patterns that come from relationships and family history, including attachment and communication problems. She also helps with practical problems such as panic attacks, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation.

People working with her can expect direct, empathetic conversation and a plan tailored to daily life. Jessica encourages realistic goals, steady progress, and follow-through that fits each person’s schedule and circumstances.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape how people connect and trust. In online sessions this approach helps identify patterns in relationships and practice new ways of relating that fit daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It provides clear exercises and tools that people can use between sessions to reduce anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.

The choice of approach is part of the work together. Jessica will help figure out which methods match a person’s goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as needs change. That collaborative process helps make sure therapy feels relevant and realistic.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These formats let people use skills learned in sessions in real time and reach a licensed professional from home or work. The variety of session types also supports different comfort levels and schedules, making it simple to continue steady progress.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
