Jessica Daas

Jessica Daas is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, relationship strain, and changes in life circumstances. She works with concerns like depression, low self-esteem, career strain, compassion fatigue, and issues related to being LGBT. Jessica approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She aims to tailor conversations and a plan to fit each person's needs. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and honest listening. Jessica supports people who are dealing with guilt and shame, searching for life purpose, recovering from traumatic events, or wanting to develop more self-love. Jessica brings 12 years of professional clinical experience in California to her work. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to what feels most useful for each person. Her style is collaborative and straightforward - she helps people name problems, try new behaviors, and reflect on what works. People who choose her can expect a steady focus on goals and small, achievable changes. She emphasizes empowerment and practical coping skills for everyday life. The aim is to help people build tools they can use outside of sessions. Jessica invites those ready to take a first step toward change to begin with a short intake and planning conversation. That first meeting helps shape a treatment plan that fits the person’s situation and goals in a realistic way.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Jessica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's situation. Two commonly used approaches are practical skills-based work, which focuses on teaching coping tools and behavioral changes to manage stress, anxiety, and anger; and trauma-informed strategies, which concentrate on pacing, safety, and processing for people dealing with post-traumatic stress and strong emotions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and adjusts the plan as needs change. Clients help set priorities and test small changes between sessions so the approach stays useful. Because the original biography does not specify session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit daily routines and communication preferences before scheduling.
