About Gessica
She has six years of experience working with motivation, confidence, and concentration challenges. In sessions she listens first, then helps build practical steps to manage unpleasant thoughts and strong reactions. That may include techniques to notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and practice new responses.
Gessica uses several common approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. These methods are used to break problems into manageable parts and to set achievable goals. She adapts them to match what each person finds helpful.
The aim is to create useful habits rather than rely on jargon. Gessica encourages small, steady changes that fit into day-to-day life. She supports people through grief, relationship stress, sleep difficulties, parenting strain, phobias, and social anxiety.
If English is your preferred language, sessions are offered in English. She does not work with international clients at this time. To begin, use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening and adjusting to each person's needs. It focuses on respecting the client's perspective and building a working relationship that guides the rest of the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep issues.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. She will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and changing the plan when needed in a collaborative way.
Confirm the available session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use written exercises and at-home practice between meetings to reinforce new skills.
