    About Jessica

    Jessica Christmann is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, trauma and sleep problems. Jessica works with clients to set clear, practical goals and to make choices that match their values.

    In early sessions she listens for what matters most and what gets in the way. Sessions look at patterns, habits, and beliefs that keep someone stuck. She uses a mix of approaches and picks tools that fit each person’s situation rather than using one fixed method.

    Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and reconnect with values. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support change when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about close relationships and how past connections affect current trust and safety.

    Jessica emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental presence in session. She invites curiosity about feelings and behavior and helps people practice small experiments between sessions. This practical focus aims to reduce shame and build clearer choices.

    With 13 years of experience, Jessica has worked with a wide range of concerns including codependency, nightmares, anger, and substance use. She collaborates with people to create realistic plans and supports them as they try new ways of coping. Her goal is to help people grow more self-compassion and clarity about who they want to be.

  2. Approaches that guide online work

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them, then clarify what matters and take small steps toward those values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and making life changes that feel meaningful.

    Motivational Interviewing focuses on strengthening a person's own reasons for change. It uses reflective listening and gentle questions to reduce ambivalence about steps like cutting back on substances, changing habits, or improving routines.

    Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection patterns affect current relationships and trust. It can help people understand repeated relationship patterns and practice new ways of relating.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit goals, preferences, and what feels doable. That conversation evolves as progress is made and needs shift.

    Confirm the specific online session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use reflective exercises, values work, and behavioral experiments in between meetings to support steady progress.
