About Jessica
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 25 years' experience, Jessica Yetto focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and mood concerns. She practices solution-focused methods alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques. Jessica works with people facing depression, bipolar disorder, grief, parenting challenges, sleep and eating issues, and attention-related concerns.
Jessica spent seven years working inside a county jail, providing intake assessments, crisis intervention, and suicide risk evaluation. She also worked in transitional housing, served as a mobile therapist and behavioral specialist consultant, and supervised a family support program. Those roles brought frequent collaboration with prescribing clinicians to address medication and physical health questions.
In the jail setting she relied heavily on solution-focused approaches that target immediate, practical coping strategies. She regularly practiced short-term interventions for increased anxiety and depressive symptoms that fit the constraints of the environment. She also offered support to staff after critical incidents.
Outside corrections, her work expands to longer-term therapeutic goals using CBT, DBT skills, and mindfulness to address patterns such as impulsivity, codependency, obsessive thinking, and anger. Sessions emphasize learning concrete coping skills, building emotion regulation strategies, and reducing harmful behaviors related to substance use or compulsions.
Jessica provides therapy in English and does not accept international clients. She aims to work with a broader range of people beyond the criminal justice setting and bring structured, skills-based care to common and complex concerns.

How her approaches translate to online work
Jessica commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a solution-focused approach. CBT helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, and mood problems. Solution-focused work concentrates on small, achievable steps and practical coping strategies that can be applied between sessions.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and present-moment awareness. DBT skills can be useful for impulsivity, anger, and mood instability. Mindfulness supports lowering reactivity and improving attention and sleep over time.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist and client collaborate to test methods, adapt strategies to daily life, and shift focus as needs change. Sessions are practical and skills-based, with homework and check-ins to measure progress.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to an office. Licensed professionals tailor session length and focus to fit the client's goals and everyday demands.
