About Jessica
LCSW in Texas with 15 years of experience, Jessica Skinner focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, parenting concerns, and related issues. She works with individuals who are managing life changes, mood concerns, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy-related matters. Jessica offers services in English and Spanish.
Jessica earned a bachelor’s degree in social welfare from the University of California at Berkeley and a Master of Social Work from Columbia University. She has been a Texas Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2006 and has worked as a psychotherapist since 2008. Her background includes helping people with a range of diagnoses and life stressors across adolescence and adulthood.
In sessions she relies on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy alongside Client-Centered and Psychodynamic methods. That means she may help a person identify unhelpful thinking patterns, set concrete short-term goals, and look at long-standing themes from earlier life that affect current feelings and choices.
Parents and adults who are juggling mood symptoms, grief, relationship strain, or career stress will find straightforward, practical work in sessions. Jessica can help break problems into manageable steps and teach skills to cope day to day. She also addresses multicultural concerns and issues related to LGBT identity when they are part of a person's presenting needs.
Work is conversational and goal oriented, with time spent on what is most pressing. If a Spanish conversation is preferred, sessions can be held in Spanish. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a person's experience and priorities, letting the client lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort feelings and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for worry, panic, low mood, and ADHD-related coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide whether CBT, client-centered work, psychodynamic exploration, or solution-focused techniques best fit current goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can be revisited as needs change.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the original biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to keep regular appointments during life transitions while focusing on practical skills and moment-to-moment concerns.
