About Tessica
Tessica Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and anger.

That mix lets her tailor sessions to what a person needs most, whether that means building coping skills, shifting unhelpful thinking, or stabilizing emotional reactions.
Her style is warm and direct. She aims to make sessions feel focused and useful, with a balance of support and concrete strategies. Parents and caregivers will find practical guidance for stress and parenting strain.
People who choose to work with Tessica typically complete a short intake and set goals together. She encourages small, steady changes and helps track progress over time.

How her approaches guide online work
Tessica often combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused techniques. Client-centered work focuses on understanding each person and building a trusting relationship so goals can be set together. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety. Trauma-focused work addresses the effects of past harm using careful, paced methods to help reduce distress and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences before recommending strategies. That means techniques can shift as needs change, and clients help shape the plan for therapy.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, with less travel time and the ability to schedule appointments between other commitments. It can also let people practice skills in real-world settings and check progress more regularly. Licensed professionals, including therapists, can use these approaches effectively in remote sessions when the fit feels right for the person.
