Background and approach

She also integrates attachment-based ideas to help people understand connection patterns and EMDR when trauma memories need a different approach. Jessica worked in New York and Florida before moving to Utah, which shaped her experience with diverse life situations. She has guided people through divorce, blended family challenges, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver or compassion fatigue.

That background informs how she handles complicated family dynamics and attachment worries. Sessions focus on clear goals and steady progress. Jessica helps people develop routines, communication habits, and coping strategies for anger, substance concerns, eating issues, and career stress.

She also supports those dealing with abandonment, emptiness, or identity questions tied to LGBT concerns. Her practice combines patience with practical steps. Jessica frames therapy as a partnership where skills are taught, practiced, and eventually used independently.

People who want a compassionate, goal-oriented therapist often find this approach helpful.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Jessica integrates attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people understand relationship patterns and build practical skills. Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current behavior and helps people change interaction styles. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and boost day-to-day functioning.

She also uses EMDR when trauma memories are part of the picture; this approach can help process distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming and allow people to move forward. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and past treatment to decide what to try first and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day or to communicate when writing feels clearer than speaking. These options provide flexibility so people can connect in ways that match their schedule and comfort.
