About Jessica
Jessica Daas is a licensed marriage and family therapist working in California with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety and those navigating relationship and family conflicts. She also supports people coping with life changes, career pressures, compassion fatigue, and questions about identity and self-worth.
Jessica uses a respectful and straightforward style in sessions. She listens first and then tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, along with time to talk through feelings and patterns that get in the way of change. Her background includes a decade-plus of clinical work in community and outpatient settings. That experience informs a flexible approach that adjusts to what a person needs in the moment.
She emphasizes compassion and sensitivity while keeping goals realistic and clear. Clients meet to build skills for managing anxiety, working through guilt and shame, and improving self-esteem and self-love. Jessica also supports those dealing with post-traumatic stress, anger, and women’s issues, helping people clarify values and next steps.
Sessions aim to balance emotional processing with concrete tools. People who choose her can expect a collaborative process. Together they set priorities, track progress, and adjust the plan as life changes.
Jessica frames therapy as a series of manageable steps toward a more satisfying life.
Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
Jessica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on skills and understanding. One common approach helps people learn concrete anxiety management tools like breathing, pacing, and behavioral experiments to test out new ways of coping. This approach is useful for stress, worry, and panic-related patterns.A second approach centers on identifying harmful thinking patterns and shifting them toward more balanced, helpful thinking. That work combines discussion with short exercises to practice new responses and improve self-esteem and self-love. It can help with guilt, shame, and low mood.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to figure out what fits each person's needs and goals, and adjusts methods as progress or life circumstances change. Clients help set priorities and choose which tools to try between sessions.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people see facial cues during in-depth work, phone calls can be easier when internet is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help therapy fit around work, family, and daily life while keeping sessions focused and goal-oriented.
