About Jesse
Jesse Schiavone is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of clinical experience practicing in Virginia. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and other life transitions. Jesse also lists trauma, grief, intimacy-related concerns, career questions, bipolar mood issues, and coaching among his focus areas.
Jesse takes a straightforward, conversational approach in sessions. He listens and uses evidence-based tools to help people identify patterns that fuel anger and frustration. He often helps clients spot thoughts and behaviors that make problems feel bigger, then tries practical steps to change them.
Sessions typically focus on what is most pressing. That might mean skill-building for managing strong emotions, short-term problem solving, or more in-depth work on family of origin and communication difficulties. He uses client-centered methods to keep discussions focused on each person's goals.
Clients should expect a mix of techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work. CBT helps unpack unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Solution-focused ideas help set clear, achievable steps for change.
Jesse works in English and practices in Virginia. He notes additional licensure in Pennsylvania and Arizona. He does not accept international clients. If someone wants to start, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Jesse uses client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused work in session. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's concerns so conversations stay relevant and personal. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical skills to interrupt patterns that fuel anger and anxiety. Solution-focused therapy emphasizes clear steps and short-term goals so clients can test small changes and notice results quickly.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which techniques to prioritize and adjust the plan as needed through follow-up sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or sessions that avoid travel time. It can also allow for flexible scheduling and consistent follow-up, which helps when working on skills for managing anger and building new communication habits.
