Therapeutic approaches and online care
Jessica uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is often useful for anxiety, low mood, and habits that get in the way of daily life.She also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that match personal values. ACT can help when someone wants to move toward meaningful goals despite difficult emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jessica will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and adjust over time based on what helps.
