About Jessica

Jessica Beane is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship and family struggles, grief, intimacy concerns, sleep problems, parenting challenges, self-esteem issues, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other life changes.

Background and approach

She draws on a decade of experience in community mental health, residential care, and case management to address both common and complex concerns such as codependency, caregiver stress, domestic violence, substance use, isolation, and guilt. Her work emphasizes building strong rapport so clients feel heard and respected before moving into structured techniques.

Jessica blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and narrative approaches to create an individualized plan. She explains how thoughts influence feelings and behaviors, and supports clients in developing motivation and practical skills for change.

With a background that includes work with adolescents through older adults across urban, suburban, and rural settings, she values progress over perfection and partners with people to pursue greater balance and wellbeing.

Jessica holds an LPC credential in Michigan and brings a pragmatic, compassionate approach aimed at helping clients move toward their goals while honoring their pace and strengths.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Jessica frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy alongside mindfulness practices to support clients in online settings. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be paired with practical homework and skill practice between sessions to address anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and addictive patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and building rapport so clients feel understood as they explore personal goals and emotional concerns, and this supportive stance helps foster trust in remote sessions. Mindfulness therapy teaches awareness and present-moment strategies to manage stress, emotional reactivity, and compulsive urges, and it can include simple exercises applied during daily routines.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences in early conversations and adapt methods over time so the work feels useful and relevant to your life. This collaborative stance helps tailor interventions and decide when to emphasize skills, exploration, or motivation-building.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules or for those with mobility or transportation constraints. These formats allow ongoing skill practice, regular check-ins, and timely support while maintaining continuity of care with licensed professionals.
