About me
I am an LMHP and LADC with 13 years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings and levels of care ranging from corrections to long-term co-occurring facilities to outpatient. I currently work with adults ages 19+. My clients include those who have mood disorder concerns, personality disorder concerns, drug and alcohol use issues, trauma related issues, and anxiety concerns. I have training in REBT, CBT, DBT (individual and skills group), and EMDR. I believe everyone is different and everyone has individual needs. Therefore I take a focused or eclectic approach with each of my clients to meet those individual needs. My philosophy for therapy and counseling is that it is the client who determines their course and I help them on their way. I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jessica Smeal. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Jessica is comfortable to talk with; our video sessions have gone well. She gives me useful tools to help me with my issues. I feel she listens intently and can pick out the right questions to ask. She helps me to see things from a different perspective. I feel better and ready to handle my issues in a more positive manner, since starting therapy with Jessica.
In my opinion, Jessica Smeal is a is a very competent therapist.
Amazing
