About Jessica

Jessica Christmann is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, and career concerns. Jessica focuses on practical steps and clear conversations rather than vague promises.

Her approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. Sessions set goals together and look at patterns that keep problems repeating. She helps clients notice habits, test new behaviors, and practice skills between meetings.

In session she talks through choices, desires, obstacles, and limiting beliefs. She uses exercises and real-world practice to address communication problems, codependency, control issues, and difficulties with boundaries. Work can include strategies for managing symptoms of PTSD, mood disorders, and addiction-related challenges.

Jessica also addresses issues like abandonment, dissociation, isolation, and problems linked to veteran and armed forces experiences. She pays attention to how past attachment patterns shape present relationships and reactions. The focus is on clear steps that reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

People who want calm, direct conversations about their anger or about recurring relationship patterns may find this approach useful. She asks questions, offers tools, and tracks progress with straightforward feedback. Prospective clients are encouraged to confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that fit their values. It can be useful for anger that shows up as strong reactions or avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood, and anger-related patterns.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is tracked and new challenges appear.

This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, or allow for a quick check-in when needed. It can also let people try skills in real life between sessions and report back on what did or did not work. Licensed professionals aim to match approach and logistics so the process fits into everyday routines.
