Jessica Herz

Jessica Herz is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship strain, and struggles with addiction. She also supports those coping with grief, trauma, parenting challenges, sleep or eating concerns, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Jessica writes in a direct, respectful way and aims to make starting therapy feel manageable.

With ten years of experience, she uses a flexible, person-focused style. Sessions center on practical conversation and real-world coping tools. Jessica draws from evidence-informed methods and tailors the plan to each person's needs rather than following a single script.

Clients can expect a blend of approaches that emphasize present-day change and emotional understanding. She often combines strategies that help people notice unhelpful thinking, build emotional regulation skills, and strengthen important relationships. The work tends to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with room for slower exploration when needed.

Jessica emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and empathy in sessions. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk honestly, try new ways of handling stress, and practice different skills between meetings. Progress is tracked together so adjustments can be made when something is not working.

If someone is ready to make changes, Jessica offers steady support and encouragement. She focuses on helping clients move toward more stable moods, clearer communication, and better daily functioning in ways that fit each person’s life.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to each person's priorities. In practice this means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns back, and helps the client name what matters most. This approach supports people working through relationship strain, low self-worth, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It offers concrete tools for anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors by teaching ways to change thinking patterns and try new behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can help with emotional overwhelm, impulsive behaviors, and conflict in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Because the original biography did not specify session formats, confirm the available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around a workday, or reducing the need to take long breaks. Licensed professionals can adapt the therapies above for remote sessions, keeping the focus on practical skills and meaningful change.
