About Jessica
Jessica Aleman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and life changes. Her profile also notes work on caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.
She has practiced in community mental health, school-based counseling for K-12 and higher education, and private practice. Much of her early work involved counseling children, teens and young adults in educational settings, and she later expanded to broader clinical roles in community agencies and private care.
Her sessions draw on a mix of evidence-based techniques. Jessica uses solution-focused work to identify practical steps, mindfulness strategies to calm reactivity, and cognitive behavioral approaches to look at thoughts and behaviors. She also considers the systems people are part of and helps connect them with external resources when that can help.
Jessica’s style is relaxed and straightforward. She aims to treat people with respect and to create a place where feelings can be talked about without judgment. She describes herself as adaptable in session planning and willing to adjust approaches to fit someone’s goals.
To begin working with her, the site asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model for sessions, and that subscription can be canceled at any time.
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Jessica integrates a few evidence-based approaches into her work. Solution-focused techniques focus on identifying small, practical steps someone can try right away to change how they feel or act. Mindfulness strategies teach simple ways to notice breath and body sensations so strong emotions are less overwhelming. Cognitive behavioral work looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and helps people test unhelpful beliefs and try different responses.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jessica collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts plans over time based on what is working and what the person wants to change.
