Approaches that translate well to online care
Jessica often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT sessions usually include clear goals, practice exercises, and step-by-step plans that work well over video or phone.She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed action even when anxiety or difficult feelings are present. ACT is useful for people who want to stop fighting feelings and start building a meaningful life despite them.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica collaborates with each person to try techniques and see what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts methods over time so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and shared visual tools, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Chat and messaging can support shorter updates, homework, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
