About Jessica
Jessica Herz is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience. She focuses on depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, and family of origin issues. Jessica also helps people coping with life changes, addiction, grief, intimacy-related problems, and stress.
Her approach blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a person-centered stance. Sessions are conversational and focused on real-life changes. Jessica uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness practices to help people change unhelpful thinking and improve emotional regulation.
She often works with attachment and abandonment themes that come from early family relationships. That can include communication problems, codependency, blended family issues, and difficulties with commitment or control. Jessica helps people notice recurring patterns and try small experiments to test different ways of relating.
Typical work in sessions includes identifying specific behaviors to change, practicing new responses, and building skills for managing strong emotions. She also helps with practical problems like sleep, eating, and managing work or caregiver stress. Treatment plans are adjusted as progress is made.
Jessica speaks English and practices in Florida as an LMHC. People are invited to consider therapy when old family patterns feel stuck, when anxiety or depression interfere with daily life, or when addictive behaviors or relationship problems persist.
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says to build clearer understanding and goals. It helps when someone needs a place to sort through feelings and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going and uses practical exercises to change them. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and unhelpful patterns coming from family of origin issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills. It is often used when strong emotions or impulsive reactions make relationships and daily life harder. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps. This is a collaborative process focused on what changes are realistic and useful for the person.
