About Jessica

Jessica Matisoff is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on practical support for stress and anxiety. She meets people where they are and helps them take small steps toward feeling better. Jessica emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space for talking about worries, moods, and everyday struggles.

She uses approaches that center the person in the room and work on patterns of thought and feeling. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing new ways to cope, and tuning into what matters most. Jessica helps people sort through parenting stress, low motivation, self-esteem concerns, and depression alongside anxiety and life transitions.

Her work reflects nine years of professional experience in counseling. That background includes guiding people through grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family problems, and challenges like addiction or ADHD-related concerns. She also addresses issues tied to adoption and foster care, body image, caregiver stress, and communication difficulties.

Clients describe practical tools and conversational support as part of how she works. Jessica blends strategies that change thinking with approaches that focus on emotion and personal meaning. She aims to help people build coping skills they can use between sessions and to make choices more aligned with their goals.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk through stress, anxiety, parenting worries, or low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, sleep or eating concerns, and unhelpful behavior patterns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact. When trauma or past hurts are part of the picture, EMDR can be one option to consider alongside other work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that fit each person's needs. That collaborative process helps shape sessions over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they fit your schedule and day-to-day realities.
