I am very pleased with my time with Jessica. She has been quite helpful in assisting me as I deal with various issues. She prescribes various methodologies that force me to better understand and accept my situation. We have worked through numerous worksheets which have been helpful to me in creating habits to reduce and minimize the tendencies I have to worry and stress. Jessica is resourceful, patient, and understands my situation and how to help remedy. Her feedback is candid, and she increasingly has challenged me to meet my goals and deal with my situation. I would recommend her to most anyone in my type of situation.

More about me
Licensing: LCSW, LCSW-C Years in Practice: 5 State: Maryland
Hello and Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey as well as Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) in Maryland. I received my Bachelor's degree in social work from The University of Georgia and my Master's in social work from The University of Maryland- Baltimore.
My counseling approach is individualized to each client based on their needs, life circumstances, and strengths. I utilize a variety of treatment modalities including but not limited to: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused therapy, and positive psychology. I have worked with people who have and/or are experiencing depression, anxiety, domestic violence, sexual assault, grief, life transitions/changes, college/work/parenting stress, and survivors of childhood sexual abuse. No matter what you are seeking therapy for, I hope that you will find me warm yet gently assertive in holding you accountable to help you reach the treatment goals that we will come up with together.
I look forward to working with you!
About online counseling
Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
