Jessica McConnell, LPC

How Jessica’s approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy starts with listening and acceptance. The therapist follows the client’s concerns and priorities, helping people feel heard and more in control of what they want to change. This approach suits people who need a supportive space to make sense of feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses clear steps and exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Many people find CBT useful for stress, anxiety, and daily coping skills.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions and how those emotions affect relationships and decision making. It can be helpful when emotions feel overwhelming or when connection and trust need rebuilding.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jessica will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they check what is helping and adjust the plan over time.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats add flexibility - video for fuller conversation, phone when bandwidth is limited, live chat for quicker check-ins, and messaging for brief ongoing support between meetings. The variety makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and day-to-day responsibilities.
