Jessica Herz, LMHC

Jessica Herz is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, relationship concerns, and life changes. She also supports clients dealing with addiction, grief, trauma, sleep and eating problems, parenting strain, ADHD, and career stress. Her first priority is listening and understanding each person's situation before planning next steps.

Jessica favors a practical, straightforward style in sessions. She uses client-centered conversations that focus on what matters to the client. She also draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Mindfulness and emotionally-focused work are woven in when they fit the client's goals.

Her approach is collaborative and tailored. She and the client set goals together, try small changes, and adjust the plan based on what works. Sessions often include talking through problems, practicing skills, and planning real-life experiments to test new ways of coping.

Jessica has practiced for 10 years in Florida as an LMHC. That experience includes helping people with mood disorders, personality-related concerns, addiction, and major life transitions. She emphasizes respect, empathy, and straightforward feedback in every session.

If someone is ready to take a first step, Jessica offers supportive guidance aimed at practical change. She encourages clients to bring specific problems and goals so sessions can stay focused and useful.

How her approach and online work fit together

Jessica combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to create practical online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person and building a safe, respectful conversation that centers the client's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to change everyday habits and reduce distress.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jessica will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and recommend techniques that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process means methods can shift as progress is made or priorities change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing sessions during a lunch break or between commitments. It can also let someone choose a shorter check-in when that is most helpful, or focus on skills practice without changing weekly routines. Jessica uses her therapeutic approaches to adapt exercises and conversation to whatever session arrangement is agreed on.
