Jessica Edmundson, LPCC

Jessica Edmundson is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio with 12 years of clinical experience. She has focused much of her work on helping people navigate addiction, process trauma and abuse, and build motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Her practice emphasizes practical skills to manage depression and anxiety so individuals can better cope with life’s challenges.

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to reflect individual needs and goals. Her style is solutions-focused, while also honoring the emotional safety and empathy it takes for someone to open up and make meaningful change. Jessica believes successful therapeutic work grows out of a collaborative relationship in which the client feels supported and understood.

Outside of her professional role she is a wife and mother of two, and also a caretaker to two dogs. She enjoys outdoor activities such as walking, camping, and exploring, and values quiet moments with a cup of coffee. Jessica’s interest in helping others developed during college and through her own experiences with anxiety and depression, which inform her warm and encouraging approach. She builds her schedule around client needs and makes evening appointments available on an as-needed basis, aiming to make starting therapy as accessible as possible.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Jessica uses evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside a client-centered stance. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present - it can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and challenges with motivation. CBT teaches practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, often benefiting those managing mood concerns, stress, or problematic coping habits. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so that treatment is shaped around what matters most to the individual.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jessica works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access licensed professionals from the convenience of home or another comfortable setting.
