More about Jessica

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello!

My name is Jessica Curd and I am licensed therapist in Indiana with over 17 years of counseling experience. I have a PhD in social work and am a nationally certified grief and loss and end-of-life counselor. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, building self-esteem and confidence, and increasing motivation. I also specialize in Autism and ADHD (helping both those with Autism and/or ADHD as well as supporting parents/caregivers).

For fun, I enjoy time with family and our dog companions, being outside, running, hiking, camping, traveling, learning new things, and creative writing.

In therapy, I collaborate with clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
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 allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Jessica has been very helpful. She listens to me but also doesn’t pressure me into changing my lifestyle. It’s a process and I really appreciate how nice and kind and how attentive she is.

Reviewed May 2023

Jessica was such a professional and also so human, very nice and kind, she made it very comfortable for me to be open about my experiences, and she put some things into perspective for me and I truly appreciate her, looking forward to our next session!

Jessica HEARD me from the beginning and has been an INCREDIBLE HELP to me from the very first session. She's got experience as well as education and I'm BLESSED TO LITERALLY CARRY HER IN MY POCKET with me and if I begin to struggle, I txt her rather than take a drink, or smoke or other self destructive behaviors I did in the past. She's FANTASTIC. THANK YOU JESSICA ❤️

I've only had two video sessions with Jessica Curd so far, but I already have confidence in her as a therapist. She is soft spoken and calm spoken which helps me feel safe. We explored a lot in just two sessions, and I have traced a lot of my current problems back to different times in my past. Jessica is so validating and does not discount anything that I've told her so far. In fact, she has helped me connect things together, and doesn't dismiss my issues with dissociation or dissociative experiences. She even bought a book about the subject that I told her about, and we're going to work through the book together. I would highly recommend Jessica Curd to anyone in Indiana who is looking for a therapist.

Reviewed May 2023

I cannot recommend Jessica enough. After struggling to find a provider in my area and feeling a little hopeless about getting any help. I was more than surprised about how quickly I was matched with a therapist and how well we connected. Jessica has always been available for our scheduled visits and she messages me often. She’s given me really great insight into how my trauma is affecting me now and ways to identify and cope with that. Love this App and love her!
