About Jessica
Jessica Foster is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia who blends practical therapy techniques with a warm, client-centered stance.
Background and approach
With five years of clinical experience, she helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and various forms of addiction while addressing relationship intimacy, parenting concerns, grief, trauma and related challenges. Her approach prioritizes understanding each person's experience and building collaborative strategies for change.
Clients can expect an atmosphere that encourages honest exploration of thoughts and feelings without judgment. Jessica draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress, and uses client-centered principles to honor each person’s values and pace.
She also works with issues such as chronic pain and illness, caregiver stress, fertility and fatherhood concerns, postpartum mood changes, panic, personality struggles, and life transitions.
Jessica guides practical steps toward clearer coping skills and greater self-understanding, supporting clients through recovery from substance use, processing trauma, improving self-esteem, and finding direction during midlife or when facing complex emotional challenges.
Combining CBT and Client-Centered Care for Online Support
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and addiction-related concerns by building concrete coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathetic therapeutic relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports self-directed growth; this approach is helpful for building insight, self-esteem, and emotional processing.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to determine whether more skills-based CBT, a client-centered stance, or a blend of both best fits the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. This process is adjusted over time as priorities change and progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow people to attend from home, manage appointments around busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care when life changes make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can use these formats to provide structured skill practice, reflective conversation, and ongoing support tailored to each client.
