It is such a pleasure to be working with Jessica to help me straighten out some things. Her responses are dead on and she does have a very good understanding of what's going on with me and asks very relevant questions. I always look forward to her responses and I love that there are really no time constraints. I can take time to put my thoughts together. I'm so glad I reached out to Betterhelp.com and Jessica was chosen to work with me!

Hello! Welcome to BetterHelp! I am so glad that you have chosen to reach out for help on your path to creating the life you want. That first step of deciding you want to make a change and that it will be better to enlist some professional help is so huge. You should be proud of yourself for that. Finding a therapist that you feel comfortable and connected with has been shown to be the most important factor in determining therapy outcomes. I look forward to working with you.
I am a mental health therapist in Ohio with 9 years experience providing mental health therapy. I earned my undergraduate degree in Social Work from Miami University and went on to get my Master's Degree from University of Cincinnati. I have experience working with people in all life stages and helping them determine the best way to reach their goals and supporting them along the way. I have seen the effects that mental health disorders and traumatic life events have on people and their families and it is such a joy watching how therapy helps them through those times. I have worked with people to address anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual assault and abuse, childhood abuse and neglect, relationship issues, disordered eating, challenges of Autism Spectrum Disorder, dysfunctional family dynamics, planning for the future and so much more. I provide a holistic approach to mental health, adhering strongly to the strength of the mind/body connection.
My clients have told me that I am easy to talk to and that they enjoy working with me. One of the best compliments a client gave me was saying, "You're one of the good ones!" after having been transferred to multiple therapists at a previous agency. I believe that clients know themselves best and so I put a strong emphasis on collaboration. I do not see myself as the expert coming to "fix" someone's problems. I believe that combining my knowledge of mental and emotional health combined with the clients knowledge of self and active participation will result in the best outcomes.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
