About Tessica
Tessica Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and anger. She draws on seven years of clinical experience and a decade as a school counselor to support real-life problems. Tessica emphasizes practical steps and steady support so people can move toward change at their own pace.
She believes each person is the expert on their own story and that strengths already exist to guide recovery. Sessions focus on clear goals, skills people can use between meetings, and steady encouragement. Tessica frames change as a series of small, manageable steps rather than sudden fixes.
Her approach combines client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when those methods fit a person’s needs. She also uses solution-focused ideas to help identify quick, achievable shifts and trauma-focused work for those processing past harm.
Tessica draws on experience working with children in public schools and in community settings to shape practical strategies for parenting, anger, and attention-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with grief, relationship strain, sleep and eating struggles, substance concerns, and workplace stress such as compassion fatigue.
People can expect a collaborative tone in sessions, with the therapist offering concrete techniques and homework when useful. Tessica aims to help people build skills for everyday life while honoring their values and goals.
How her approaches shape online work
Tessica uses client-centered therapy to follow each person’s priorities, listening carefully and building sessions around what matters most to the individual. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, respectful space to make sense of their situation.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT offers practical exercises and problem-focused plans that can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep or eating patterns.
Dialectical behavior therapy techniques are employed when emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness are goals. DBT skills teach concrete tools for managing intense feelings and improving communication in stressful moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals and preferences. That conversation can happen in the first few sessions and may evolve over time.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since session formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills practice to an online setting so progress remains practical and focused on day-to-day challenges.
