About Jessica
Jessica Herz is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with ten years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, relationship strain, parenting challenges, addictions, grief, anger, and related concerns. Sessions are presented in plain language and focus on practical steps people can try between meetings.
Her approach brings together several methods so conversations stay focused and useful. She uses client-centered work to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provide tools for changing unhelpful thoughts and managing strong emotions.
Jessica also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and mindfulness techniques to help people notice patterns and respond differently. She describes therapy as collaborative - she listens, offers feedback, and practices skills with clients. The aim is to build clearer communication, better boundaries, and fewer explosive or simmering reactions.
Her background includes a range of mental health concerns from mood and personality disorders to addiction and life transitions. That variety has shaped a practical style that blends skill learning with talking through relationship and career problems. People who want concrete strategies for temper, resentment, or workplace frustration often find this approach useful.
Sessions are conducted in English and are offered through the processes described by the service. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How sessions work
How Jessica’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centered work focuses on what matters to the person. Online sessions let conversations stay focused on the client’s priorities while the therapist listens and reflects. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides clear, structured tools to spot and change thought patterns that feed anger and anxiety. CBT exercises and homework adapt well to an online format so people can practice between meetings.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are taught in short, repeatable steps which can be reviewed across sessions and practiced in daily life. Together these approaches emphasize learning skills and applying them between sessions, with the therapist helping to pick which tools fit best.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Jessica works collaboratively to identify goals and chooses techniques based on the client’s needs and preferences. That means adjusting the pace, choosing between skill practice or deeper conversation, and checking in about what helps most.
