About Jessica
Jessica Steely is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She offers straightforward support for relationship troubles, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Her style aims to make starting therapy feel simple and manageable for someone who may be worried or uncertain.
She uses a person-centered and mindfulness-based approach. That means she listens first, then helps clients recognize strengths they already have.
Background and approach
Sessions include practical tools and moments to build awareness about thoughts and feelings. Jessica has nine years of experience working with people facing anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, and problems with boundaries or communication. She also addresses issues such as attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, blended family concerns, and forgiveness.
Her background gives her familiarity with both emotional and relationship-related stressors. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Jessica explains the steps to begin so people know what to expect before their first session. Her approach centers on collaboration. Clients and Jessica set goals together and try practical strategies that can fit everyday life.
The focus is on steady, realistic progress rather than quick fixes.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Jessica uses person-centered work and mindfulness-based techniques to guide sessions. Person-centered work focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people identify their own goals and strengths; it helps when someone feels stuck or unheard. Mindfulness-based techniques teach simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations, which can reduce reactivity and make daily stressors easier to manage.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods, check what works, and adjust the plan so therapy fits the person's life and needs.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or when writing feels like a clearer way to communicate. These formats provide flexibility to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping continuity of care with licensed professionals.
