LPC-MHSP, LPC are her listed credentials. Her work often centers on coping skills for anxiety and mood, support for parenting challenges, and help with addictive behaviors and motivation.

Background and approach

She also addresses issues like self-esteem, communication problems, and compassion fatigue. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-focused, with practical tools taught during the process. Jessica draws on several therapy methods including cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses.

She also uses attachment-based perspectives to look at relationship patterns and client-centered listening to keep conversations grounded in what matters to the individual. She tailors plans to each person rather than using a single approach for everyone. That might mean working on emotion regulation skills one week and values-based action the next.

Jessica emphasizes working at a pace that feels doable and relevant. Sessions are offered in English and she practices from Tennessee. Her professional licenses are TN LPC-MHSP 6611 and VA LPC 0701011819.

The process begins with a short questionnaire to match goals and schedule a first session.

Therapy approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It’s useful for anxiety, low motivation, and situations where someone wants more consistent action despite difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches steps to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape reactions and expectations. It can help with communication patterns, trust, and relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will listen to your concerns and help decide which methods fit your goals and preferences. That sense of collaboration means the plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and to continue care from different locations within Tennessee. Licensed professionals can teach skills, coach through parenting or stress moments, and support step-by-step change using these formats.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
