About Jessica

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of experience, Jessica Chester helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She works directly with young adults on workplace dynamics and social interactions, and addresses related concerns such as communication problems and commitment issues. Sessions focus on practical skills and concrete steps rather than abstract theory.

Jessica uses a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. In sessions she helps clients build emotion regulation strategies, practice clearer communication, and try small behavioral experiments to test new approaches. She also supports people dealing with separation, family problems, guilt and shame, and issues like panic attacks or dissociation.

Her style is collaborative and action-oriented. Clients work on specific goals and track progress between meetings. Sessions often include skill practice, short exercises, and straightforward feedback to help apply what was discussed to daily life.

Jessica has 15 years in the field and holds the LPC credential. She practices in Georgia and conducts work in English. International clients are not accepted at this time.

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In practice this means setting clear, measurable goals, trying small behavioral experiments, and tracking what helps with mood and anxiety. It is commonly used for depression, panic attacks, social anxiety, and workplace stress.

DBT teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Sessions often include skill rehearsal, short coaching-style instruction, and homework to practice new responses when emotions run high.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jessica works with clients to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. That choice is revisited over time as needs change and progress is tracked together.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so appointments can happen between work or family commitments. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT materials to virtual sessions through guided exercises, screen-shared worksheets, and in-session practice without changing the core methods.
