About Jessica
Jessica Harp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of clinical work. She focuses on practical steps people can use when stress, anxiety, or major life changes feel overwhelming. Jessica writes straightforward plans and listens without judgment to help people feel steadier.
Her background includes clinical program and operations roles in inpatient and residential settings. That experience shaped her skill with crisis stabilization, addiction recovery, and complex trauma.
Background and approach
She has worked in settings that support first responders and veterans, and she brings that familiarity into regular therapy sessions. In session she uses clear, evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral tools and acceptance-based strategies. Clients can expect short-term skill building for coping, plus space to look at longer patterns that fuel anxiety or low self-esteem.
Jessica also draws on client-centered and motivational techniques to match each person’s pace. She addresses a broad range of concerns including depression, bipolar mood challenges, grief and loss, relationship and family issues, and problems like codependency or abandonment fear. Parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and career stress are also common topics she helps people sort through.
Jessica aims to make therapy relatable and doable. She focuses on small changes that add up, teaching skills people can use between sessions. People who want clear tools and steady support tend to find her approach helpful.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that fit their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions by clarifying what matters and building small, consistent steps toward it. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and homework. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and social phobia by teaching clear tools to challenge thoughts and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings skills for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsivity, and improving relationships. It combines mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills useful for self-harm urges, intense mood swings, or crises.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals and current struggles, then suggest methods that match your needs. You can try different techniques and adjust the plan if something does not feel like the right fit.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat work well for quick check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility for scheduling, pacing, and the type of contact that feels most useful.
