About Jessica
Jessica Matisoff is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who brings nine years of experience to her work.

Jessica creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters most to them. She listens closely and helps people put words to their feelings.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward so clients leave with clear next steps. Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors.
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s goals and values at the center of the work. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy and EMDR where appropriate for processing strong emotions and trauma. Jessica pays attention to everyday stresses as well as deeper emotional patterns.
She helps clients address sleep and eating concerns, anger, ADHD-related struggles, and relationship problems within their life context. She also supports those dealing with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and body image worries. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by phone, video, chat, or messaging.
Jessica works with each person to set realistic goals and practical coping skills. The process is collaborative and paced to fit the client’s needs.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and values, giving space to be heard and understood while guiding practical change. This approach is useful for building self-esteem and finding direction when life feels overwhelming.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating issues.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps identify and shift patterns in close relationships and strong emotions. It can be helpful for people working through attachment issues, family problems, or intense grief.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps shape which methods are used and how progress is measured.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets or exercises. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people reflect in writing and get ongoing support between live sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still doing meaningful clinical work.
