01About Jessica
Jessica Cleary is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with nine years of experience. She offers a warm, interactive style and aims to make therapy approachable for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or major life changes. She explains things simply and works alongside clients to find practical steps forward.
Her background includes a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling and extensive time in community mental health settings.
Background and approach
That experience exposed her to a wide range of concerns, especially depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and parenting-related stress. She has also worked with people coping with fertility struggles, postpartum mood challenges, and career transitions. In sessions she blends several approaches to match each person's needs.
Her work draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), and EMDR when trauma work is needed. She keeps things focused on what will help the client feel better in daily life. Jessica describes her style as supportive and laid back, while offering more structure when someone prefers it.
She treats people with respect and avoids stigmatizing labels, centering the client's own goals and perspective. The result is a collaborative process that balances practical skills with emotional understanding. If someone is ready to make a change, she aims to support and empower them through steady, goal-oriented work.
Jessica welcomes questions about whether her approach fits a person’s current concerns.

04Online support
Using Talk and Skills-Based Methods Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and working from your goals. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what matters to you, and helps you name next steps that feel doable. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings and teaches concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better relationship skills when emotions feel overwhelming.Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will talk with a person about goals, history, and preferences and then suggest options to try. That plan can change over time based on what helps most, so work together to find the best fit.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know what to expect. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people continue therapy during moves or while living outside the therapist's state; Jessica accepts international clients. Discuss scheduling needs and format preferences during the intake so sessions align with everyday life.
