About Jessica
Jessica Bright is a licensed marriage and family therapist with nine years of experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and parenting challenges.

Jessica adapts each session to the person in the room. She uses listening and gentle reflection to find what matters most, then helps set small, manageable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions often include talking through patterns, trying new ways of responding, and checking progress over time. Her work includes support for relationship problems, family concerns, grief, and trauma. She also helps people facing career stress, caregiver strain, fertility or fatherhood worries, and challenges with self-image or codependency.
Jessica pays attention to attachment issues, feelings of emptiness, and difficulties like dissociation that can come from past hurt. Therapeutic approaches she draws on include attachment-based ideas, emotionally-focused methods, client-centered conversation, and EMDR for processing traumatic memories when appropriate. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method for relationship work.
Jessica explains options and together with clients decides what to try first. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish for people located in Utah and for international clients. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and aims to make steps toward change feel doable and clear.
Online approaches that focus on attachment and emotion
Attachment-Based Therapy centers on how early connections shape current relationships and emotional reactions. Online sessions use conversation to notice patterns and practice new ways of connecting that reduce anxiety and improve trust. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift painful emotion cycles in relationships and personal life. In remote sessions this can include guided conversations that track feelings and try new responses in real time. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) supports processing traumatic memories; when appropriate, parts of EMDR can be adapted for video work to help reduce the intensity of traumatic images and sensations.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether to focus on attachment patterns, emotions, trauma processing, or a mix of methods tailored to the person's needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when typing out thoughts helps clarify feelings. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping therapy consistent.
