Jessica Chester, LPC

Jessica Chester is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She also helps people facing workplace struggles, communication breakdowns, and the early challenges of young adulthood.

Jessica focuses on practical tools rather than long lectures. She helps clients learn emotion regulation skills, improve communication, and manage impulsive reactions. Sessions often include skills practice, short behavioral experiments, and discussion of real situations people bring from work or home.

Her toolbox draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused techniques. That means she will look at thoughts and behaviors, teach moment-to-moment coping skills, and try brief, goal-directed steps to reduce immediate problems. Clients can expect clear strategies they can use between sessions.

Jessica pays attention to how relationships and work stress affect mood and behavior. She will talk through patterns of resentment, habitual anger responses, or avoidance that has built up over time. The aim is to make day-to-day interactions less draining and more manageable.

People often come for help with panic attacks, self-harm urges, or overwhelming shame and guilt. Jessica also addresses issues like separation, forgiveness, dissociation, and social anxiety using the same practical focus. She works collaboratively to set goals and track small changes.
