How Jessica Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Jessica blends client-centered work and cognitive-behavioral techniques in session. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting connection so people can speak openly about what matters most. Cognitive-behavioral therapy helps identify patterns of thinking and behavior, then develops small experiments and new skills to reduce anxiety or anger.She also draws on attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas when relationships or closeness are central to concerns. Those approaches look at how early patterns affect current connections and help people practice new ways of relating and communicating.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jessica talks with each person about goals and preferences, then adjusts techniques week to week. Clients can expect to shape the plan together as progress is reviewed and priorities change.
