About Jessica

Jessica Mujica is a licensed mental health counselor (LCMHC) who focuses on supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, LGBT concerns, and a wide range of related challenges.

Background and approach

She brings a practical, collaborative stance to work on issues such as coping with life changes, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, grief, anger, low self-esteem, attention difficulties, and compassion fatigue, as well as specialized topics like kink and alternative sexuality, polyamory, and process addictions.

Working from a mix of evidence-informed approaches, Jessica emphasizes clear goals and skill building while attending to each person’s values and lived experience. Her style balances active problem-solving with empathic listening so clients can learn tools to manage symptoms and develop healthier patterns.

With four years of clinical experience and a graduate degree in clinical mental health counseling that included a focus on addictions, she aims to create individualized plans that match each client’s priorities and pace. Jessica practices in North Carolina and is available to work with clients in English, including international clients.

She offers multiple remote session formats and supports people who are ready to take concrete steps toward change while honoring their personal identity and cultural context.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Jessica integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy, and often uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when helpful. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes understanding each person’s perspective and building a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship so goals emerge from the client’s own values. DBT contributes concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and effective interpersonal communication when strong emotions or impulsive patterns are present.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process; Jessica will work with each client to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Together they set priorities, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what is most helpful for progress.

Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity when travel or distance is a factor, and use different formats for skills practice or check-ins between meetings.
