About Jessica
Jessica Matisoff is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with nine years of experience. She focuses on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. Jessica also works with people facing addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges around sleep and eating.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches. In sessions she helps people name emotions and notice patterns that keep them stuck. Conversations are direct and practical, aimed at making feelings clearer and more manageable.
Jessica often addresses relationship and attachment questions by helping clients understand how their reactions connect to past experiences. She also supports people navigating life changes, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care issues, and neurodiversity concerns such as autism and Asperger Syndrome.
When trauma or overwhelming memories are involved, she may incorporate techniques drawn from Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to reduce distress tied to specific events. Existential ideas are used when clients are asking about meaning, emptiness, or how to move forward after loss.
Her style emphasizes practical steps and clearer emotional awareness. New clients can expect straightforward conversation, focused goals, and help building skills to cope with everyday demands.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name core emotions and the interaction patterns they create. It is useful when strong feelings and attachment concerns shape how someone responds in relationships and in life. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a client's goals and preferences and may combine elements from different approaches as needed. The plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce the need to commute. Many people find online sessions helpful for doing the same focused emotional work they would do in person while staying in their everyday routines.
