About Jessica
Jessica Willis, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi, has 23 years of clinical practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns using a mix of evidence-based therapies. Jessica emphasizes practical work in sessions that focuses on skills and understanding rather than labels.
She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to guide her work. That means sessions can include learning new coping skills, examining patterns in relationships, and practicing ways to respond differently to painful thoughts and feelings. The aim is to reduce distress and increase ability to handle everyday challenges.
Jessica has experience with a wide range of concerns. These include addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career stress, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and commitment or codependency issues.
In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps. Conversations often move between understanding past patterns and trying new behaviors in the present. Clients leave with tools they can use between appointments.
Jessica works in Mississippi and conducts therapy in English. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying new behaviors. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and problems with sleep or eating. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people build more secure ways of relating to others. Picking an approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. Sessions are collaborative and may combine elements from different approaches as needs change. Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list formats explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week. It can allow for shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and fit into a break at work. Therapists use these methods to practice skills between sessions and to support progress on day-to-day challenges.03
