About Tessica

Tessica Taylor is an Oklahoma-licensed professional counselor (LPC) who draws on seven years of clinical experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting difficulties, anger, addictions, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and a wide range of related concerns.

Background and approach

She frames therapy around each person's strengths and personal story, helping clients identify practical tools and insight to cope with life transitions, relationship and intimacy challenges, grief, body image and eating or sleeping problems, as well as career and self-esteem issues.

Her approach blends client-centered care with cognitive and skills-based techniques, emphasizing collaboration and respect for the client's goals. Tessica also integrates trauma-focused and solution-oriented strategies when appropriate, aiming to help clients manage overwhelming emotions, reduce unhelpful thinking patterns, and build skills for everyday challenges.

She has additional experience related to adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, domestic violence, and other complex situations that can affect functioning. Available to English-speaking clients in Oklahoma, Tessica offers multiple session formats and encourages people to take the first step toward change by choosing a therapy plan that fits their schedule and needs.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s own goals guide the work; it helps people explore values, build self-awareness, and find solutions that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to identify and shift patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and problems such as sleep or eating difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines acceptance and change strategies and offers practical tools for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Tessica collaborates with clients to determine what methods make the most sense based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process allows the plan to evolve over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for scheduling and makes it easier to fit consistent sessions into busy lives. These formats allow work on skills, thought patterns, and coping strategies between sessions and can support steady progress for people managing stress, trauma recovery, relationship issues, and everyday challenges.
