About Jessica
Jessica Futoran is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 13 years of experience. She brings practical, down-to-earth support to parents and families facing difficult moments. Jessica emphasizes straightforward conversation and collaborative planning so people can make steady progress.
She respects a range of beliefs and will work with each person’s values and goals. Jessica draws on experience helping with stress, anxiety, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, and trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
She also supports people with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting questions, grief, and challenges related to addiction and compassion fatigue. Other common topics she addresses include self-esteem, ADHD, career stress, and life transitions. Her style is client-centered, meaning sessions are shaped by what matters most to the person in front of her.
She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on practical ways to change thoughts and behaviors, and solution-focused techniques that aim for clear, achievable steps. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-oriented. Jessica is licensed in Florida - FL LMHC MH12892 - and conducts sessions in English.
She can work with people who identify as LGBT and those navigating adoption, fertility issues, veteran-related concerns, or caregiver stress. Parents reading this will find a therapist who values clear plans and real-world skills. Jessica helps families build better communication and coping tools, one step at a time.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Jessica often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following each person’s lead so goals come from the client. That approach helps people feel heard and builds trust before making changes.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood symptoms, and handle stress. Solution-focused therapy narrows in on small, specific steps that move a person toward clear goals, which can be useful for parenting challenges or relationship concerns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Jessica will work with clients to decide which methods fit their goals, values, and the issues they bring. She adjusts plans as progress is made so work remains focused and useful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These formats allow parents and caregivers to fit sessions into busy schedules, keep momentum between meetings, and choose the way of communicating that feels most comfortable. The variety of options supports steady progress even when life is hectic.
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.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
