How Jessica's approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and partnering with the person to set goals and find what works. It helps when someone needs a steady, nonjudgmental space to sort thoughts and make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises and brief homework to change unhelpful thinking patterns, which can help with anxiety, stress, and addictive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts tools over time as needs change.
