About Jessica

Jessica Edmundson is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 12 years of experience helping people through hard times. She focuses on practical steps clients can use to manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges around addiction and grieving. Jessica aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people feel heard and ready to make changes.

Her approach is tailored to each person. Sessions focus on building skills and finding solutions that fit daily life. Jessica uses methods that include acceptance and commitment principles, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and client-centered care to help people understand patterns and try different responses.

Jessica has worked in both in-patient and out-patient settings supporting recovery from substance use and addressing trauma and abuse. She also helps people strengthen self-esteem, increase motivation, and develop coping tools for mood and attention challenges. Her background includes a variety of clinical roles over more than a decade in Ohio.

She keeps therapy straightforward and collaborative. Conversations are shaped around what matters most to the person in front of her, and plans are adjusted as goals change. Jessica offers evening appointments when needed and tries to accommodate scheduling needs where possible.

Outside of work she is a wife and mother who enjoys outdoor time, camping, and quiet moments with coffee. That personal perspective influences a down-to-earth therapy style that focuses on real-life improvements.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, relationship worries, and challenges like low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce distress and improve mood; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus and calm, which supports stress, trauma responses, and self-regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to pick or combine methods that match their goals, needs, and everyday life. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most, and clients are invited to give regular feedback.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find online work lets them fit therapy into a busy week, hold shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoid travel time, or choose not to use video when that feels easier. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to an online setting so people can practice skills between sessions and apply them in daily routines.
