I have never looked forward to therapy appointments until I started my sessions with Jessica. I am so happy I have found a therapist finally that “gets me” and has been such an important and beneficial part of my mental health care team. I am thankful to have such a great match here on BetterHelp!

More about Jessica

  • 35 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCMHC

Throughout the 35 years of being present with people working in my office I have fostered a style of weaving together an approach of mindfulness, CBT /DBT skills training, and psychodynamic techniques to assist my clients in gaining a multi-level healing experience. I value the power of unconditional positive regard for each person's own unique journey and support the acquisition of new skills in gaining mastery to address such issues as as depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, as well as navigating the complexities of relationships.

I am at once compassionate and passionate about assisting others in the spirit of seeking a healthy, mindful sense of grace for living in this complicated world of ours. Choosing to working with me you will get a mature, stable, committed, and ethically sound professional who is dedicated to reducing suffering and increasing confidence to address personal issues.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

Wonderful therapist...very keen in her observations and guidance. I highly recommend Jessica Hartley if you are looking for a skilled practitioner who brings her best to each and every session.

I have been speaking with Jessica for over a year now, and I attribute the grand majority of any of my growth to her guidance and expertise. I have a much better understanding of myself and my mental mechanisms and with that, she has given me tools to apply on a daily basis that I don’t even realize I am using. I feel very safe to tell her exactly where I am at emotionally and physically and I am met with an open mind and curiosity. I appreciate Jessica’s ability to challenge me and push back. To work with Jessica is to be in a flowing and constructive conversation , and there is never a wasted minute.

I've only had a few session with Jessica so far however I feel so grateful to have been matched together. She communicates clearly and directly in a manner that suits my needs. She's identified the areas of concern in my life and helps me stay focused and keep direction without judgement. She's been helpful outside of session by sending meditations to practice and encouraging me through challenging weeks. I'm feeling hopeful and looking forward to therapy each week.

Jessica has been an absolute blessing! She is such a wonderful person. Sessions with her are always extremely helpful. She is extremely knowledgeable in understanding the complexities and uniqueness of each human being as a whole, and has so many different tools and approaches, that feel catered to YOU (versus feeling like you are undergoing a "one size fits all" type of therapy). She's able to quickly identify what it is that I am going through and offers just the right guidance and solutions. She is so humble, down to earth and makes one feel so seen. She is truly gifted at what she does and I am very grateful to have been matched with her!

I struck Luck being matched with Jessica, she allowed and implemented a professional judgement-free space and we dived deep into the details that was affecting me and the situations.

I was concerned that I would struggle to find a therapist that understood my situation and the challenges that I have faced and new challenges ahead. Jessica has so far made me feel validated and understood. I do not feel that I have to fully explain my thought process surrounding my feelings as she has a clear understanding of the personality types that have been causing me harm. She is providing me with a safe space to reflect, grow and overcome.

Reviewed September 2022

I have only had 2 sessions with Jessica, but from the first one I was impressed with her professionalism and her kind manner. She listens and responds in thoughtful helpful ways and I feel that she is the right therapist for me. I'm actually surprised as I really didn't know how this online therapy would work. But it's definitely as good as going to someone in person. And the quality is high.
