About Jessica
Jessica Matisoff is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with nine years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, parenting challenges, and anger. Jessica focuses on practical, usable strategies rather than jargon.
Her work is straightforward and person-focused. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and shift patterns that fuel irritation or anxiety. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is part of her toolkit for understanding relationship-driven emotions.
Jessica also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, when appropriate, to address traumatic memories that can underlie strong emotional reactions. She blends these approaches with existential questions about meaning and values when clients want that perspective.
Sessions emphasize clear steps you can try between meetings. She helps people notice triggers, test small behavioral changes, and practice skills for anger and stress management. Work on communication and boundary-setting often figures into plans.
Her background includes supporting people through grief, addiction concerns, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and caregiver stress. She also addresses issues related to adoption and foster care, attachment, autism spectrum traits, and family conflict.
Jessica conducts sessions in English and works from a Texas practice. If you want to explore working together, follow the documented steps to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches fit into online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online work using this approach often means the therapist follows the client's lead, clarifies feelings, and helps name what is most pressing. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard and wants practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. Online CBT sessions can teach simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts, build calmer responses, and try small behavioral experiments between meetings. This is useful for anger that comes from thinking patterns or stress at work.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions shape relationships and reactive behaviors. In remote sessions the therapist helps identify cycles of interaction and practices new ways of relating that reduce recurring anger and resentment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and what is happening day to day. That conversation guides whether to emphasize listening, cognitive skills, or emotion-focused work.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy life by offering shorter check-ins or scheduling around work breaks. They also make it easier to continue regular meetings without travel, which keeps momentum while learning new ways to manage anger.
