About Jessica

Jessica Wiles is an Ohio licensed independent social worker (LISW) with three years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, grief, anger, low self-esteem, career questions, and life changes.

She works from the view that each person knows their own story best. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals rather than labels. Jessica uses plain language to talk through what is getting in the way and what small changes could make daily life easier.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and to test new ways of responding. She also uses client-centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in the client’s priorities. Mindfulness techniques are offered when they fit, to help with managing strong emotions like anger and panic.

Jessica also brings solution-focused tools to help people find immediate, usable strategies for work or family stress. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change and needs to weigh options in a nonjudgmental way.

She has experience supporting parents and working with young adult issues, adoption and foster care concerns, hearing-impaired clients, and people facing panic attacks or ADHD-related challenges. Sessions are aimed at realistic, step-by-step progress rather than quick fixes.

How therapeutic approaches are used online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify their priorities and decide which problems to tackle first. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy offers simple breathing and attention practices to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions like anger.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that match their goals and preferences. If something does not feel useful, adjustments are made so the work stays practical and focused on what the client needs.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time from a workday. Discussing method and timing during the first appointment helps set realistic, usable steps to practice between sessions.
