Online therapy approaches and options
Jessica provides remote care using a blend of practical therapies. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and develop concrete behavioral strategies that address symptoms like anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy contributes skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and enhancing interpersonal effectiveness. Attachment-Based Therapy helps explore relational patterns, past attachment experiences, and how those patterns influence current relationships.
Her online sessions are collaborative. Clients and Jessica set goals together, choose which techniques to prioritize, and adapt exercises between meetings. This makes the work suitable for people who prefer structured skill-building, relational exploration, or a mix of both. Technology options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences and needs.
Clients can expect a process that combines skill practice, reflective conversation, and problem-solving. Modalities are applied based on the client’s presenting concerns and the collaborative plan developed during intake.What is Jessica Peres's clinical experience?
