About Jessica

Jessica Grimm is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationships, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and parenting concerns. She draws on 14 years of experience to offer practical support for coping with life changes, grief, addictions, bipolar challenges, career decisions, and family issues. Jessica speaks English and uses clear, straightforward language in sessions.

She holds a Master of Science degree in Counseling Psychology from Tarleton State University and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the same school.

Background and approach

Early in her career she took part in research at the University of Texas at Arlington looking at stress, resilience, exercise, and health issues including cancer and diabetes. That research background informs how she talks about stress and healthy routines in therapy. Jessica uses approaches that keep the client’s goals front and center.

She blends client-centered skills with cognitive behavioral strategies and motivational interviewing to help people change patterns that interfere with daily life. Narrative and solution-focused techniques are also part of her toolkit when they fit a person’s needs. Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative.

Jessica helps clients set clear, achievable steps and checks progress along the way. Her work often focuses on concrete coping skills, ways to improve relationships, and problem-solving for common life stresses. Her LPC credential is issued by the Texas State Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors, license number TX LPC 66968.

Jessica offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible ways to connect.

How Jessica’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s point of view. It creates space for people to talk through their concerns and set their own goals, which helps when stress or relationships feel overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to build coping skills for anxiety, depression, and mood shifts.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It works well when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps, such as addressing addictions or making life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jessica will talk through goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan to match each person’s needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps identify what feels most useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings. Jessica uses the same therapeutic methods online as she would in person, tailored so exercises and conversations work well through each format.

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.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
