About Jessica
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 9 years of experience, Jessica Cleary focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, relationship and family issues, mood disorders, and related areas. She works with adults across life stages and with people navigating transitions such as career change, separation, fertility concerns, and new parenthood. Sessions draw on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and EMDR where appropriate.
Jessica offers a straightforward, person-focused approach. She treats each person as the expert on their life and uses conversational methods to set practical goals. In session she mixes reflective listening with skills practice, brief problem-solving, and structured exercises depending on what a person prefers.
Her background includes a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling and long experience in community mental health settings. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including depression, OCD, ADHD, panic, postpartum mood conditions, grief, and trauma from abuse or other events. She has spent time supporting people through major life changes and parenting challenges.
Therapy can include short-term coaching-style work or longer-term counseling. Jessica adapts the level of structure to the person - some people benefit from a more laid-back, conversational pace, while others use more directive skill-building and homework.
She uses evidence-informed tools such as cognitive restructuring, emotion regulation skills, attachment-focused interventions, and trauma processing techniques. People who want practical steps and chances to practice new skills often find this style useful.

Using evidence-based approaches in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and uses active listening and reflection to help clarify goals and values. It is helpful for people who want to talk through decisions, parenting challenges, relationship questions, or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, OCD symptoms, and stress management by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new responses.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps process distressing memories. When appropriate, it can be used for post-traumatic stress, abuse-related trauma, and other hurtful events to reduce the intensity of traumatic reactions.
Deciding on an approach is collaborative. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that match those needs. People often try a few techniques early on and then focus on the ones that feel most helpful.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or let someone avoid being on camera if they prefer. These practical benefits can help keep therapy consistent while working toward stated goals.
