About Jessica

Jessica Harp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and addiction concerns. Jessica offers practical, down-to-earth support for people facing life changes, grief, or challenges at work and in relationships.

Her background includes clinical roles in program management and inpatient care. That experience shaped a straightforward style that blends talk therapy with skills practice. Sessions typically focus on clear steps people can try between meetings to handle emotions and daily pressures.

Jessica draws on several therapy approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new habits. She also works with acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take small action toward them.

Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when emotions feel intense or overwhelming. Motivational interviewing helps people sort out mixed feelings about change and find their own reasons to move forward. The work aims to be collaborative and paced to what each person is ready for.

People who choose Jessica can expect a focused, respectful process. She helps set realistic goals and teaches skills for coping between sessions. Those looking to start are asked to follow the platform’s onboarding steps to complete a brief questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting.

How her approaches shape online work

Jessica often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck and to take small steps toward what matters to them. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete techniques to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns. CBT is often used for problem-focused goals like managing panic, low mood, or unhelpful thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, pace, and preferences. This is a collaborative effort, and adjustments can be made as needs change.

Practical benefits of doing therapy remotely include fitting sessions into a busy day and keeping continuity during transitions. Because the specific session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to practice skills between meetings and to maintain contact when life schedules are tight.
