Hello there.
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 6 years of experience working as a psychotherapist and over 10 years of experience as a life coach. I have primarily worked with clients dealing with various concerns including depression and anxiety, self-esteem/self-worth, relationship issues, sexual orientation, and career challenges. I also aid in helping people deal with trauma from racial oppression and violence.
My counseling style is direct and caring, with you as the leader and expert of your experience. I meet you where you are and begin with strengthening the foundation you will build on. Whatever ideations, thoughts, and beliefs you currently have will be used and/or challenged in an environment that allows you to safely, freely, and openly express them. Aside from safety concerns, this is a completely judge free zone no matter the culture/subculture, gender, pronoun, or race. I create and uphold an environment of MUTUAL respect of boundaries and you are able to go at your pace. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, experiential, psychodynamic, and motivational-interviewing which would be tailored to your needs.
I believe in elevating the personal power within and guide you towards accessing that. Living in truth looks different for everyone. Let's find out what it looks like, for you!

I haven’t returned to Jessica for a long time, but even with one message, it’s like I’m back to being supported on everything, which is just a testament to her talents as a therapist. BetterHelp is lucky to have her!

Jessica Mitchell is and continues to be a great listener, giver of insightful advise, and confidante. She helps me focus on what is important while providing space, time, and support when I struggle through my emotions. I like the homework she gives, specific thoughts to reflect and/or write about. She has helped me figure out where I should focus and always tailors the work in and out of our sessions to align with my wants/ needs. Very grateful to have her as my therapist.

My life is changing for the better because of the support and guidance I receive from Ms.Mitchell. Her ability to pick up where we left off or where I currently am is amazing! And she’s always on point and takes time to discuss, question and guide me towards my goals in this therapy.

Mrs. Mitchell is amazing. She makes me feel safe and I’m so glad to have a space where I can be myself without judgements.
