About Jessica

Jessica Matisoff is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who integrates cognitive behavioral methods with client-centered care to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges.

Background and approach

With nine years of clinical experience, she emphasizes practical skills and thoughtful exploration of thought patterns to boost motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Her work also addresses a broad range of concerns from trauma and grief to addiction and sleep or eating issues.

She creates a supportive atmosphere where clients can examine feelings and reactions without judgment, and she tailors her interventions to each person’s situation. Jessica draws on evidence-informed tools alongside emotionally focused and existential perspectives when deeper relational and meaning-focused work is needed.

She also has training in EMDR for clients processing traumatic memories and uses mindfulness strategies to strengthen coping during life transitions. Jessica accepts clients through video, phone, chat, and messaging formats and works collaboratively to set goals and choose approaches that fit each client’s needs and preferences.

Her practice serves people across many life challenges, helping them build resilience, clearer communication, and healthier routines.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Jessica commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and to develop concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. She also employs Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring personal goals and values. In some cases she integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques to work with relationship patterns and emotional engagement when relational concerns are central.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to weigh goals, preferences, and the nature of presenting concerns to choose techniques that fit the client’s life and comfort level. Techniques may be adjusted over time as goals evolve and progress is reviewed together.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and choose a format that supports practical needs and comfort while pursuing therapeutic work.
