How Jessica Uses Evidence-Informed Approaches Online

Jessica commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT breaks problems into small parts so clients can test new ways of thinking and see what works for reducing anxiety, anger, or low mood.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and responding to each person’s needs. That approach focuses on understanding where someone is and pacing work around their goals. Mindfulness therapy appears in sessions as short practices and grounding exercises to reduce reactivity and improve attention to the present moment.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Jessica talks with each person about goals and preferences, then tries methods that fit those aims. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps the client make steady progress.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging offer brief check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
