About Jessica

Jessica Braddock is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Maine with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and stress. Sessions focus on practical steps and skills rather than abstract theory.

Her approach centers on helping people notice what already helps them and build on those strengths. She offers concrete tools to manage anxiety, anger, and mood changes. She also addresses issues like ADHD, grief, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue in straightforward ways.

Jessica uses several therapy styles to match a person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clarify values and take committed action toward them.

She also draws on Jungian ideas and motivational interviewing to help people reflect on deeper themes and increase readiness for change. These approaches are mixed with practical coping strategies for everyday life. The work often includes skill practice between sessions.

Jessica aims for direct, down-to-earth conversations. She helps people break big problems into small steps. People leave with tools they can use right away and strategies to track progress over time.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small actions that reflect those values. It helps when life feels stuck and decisions are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete exercises to change patterns that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for handling intense emotions and staying steady during crises.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to try based on current needs, goals, and what feels most useful. That plan can change as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking so arrangements fit your routine. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and other commitments. They can allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and let people use techniques in the setting where problems occur. Ask about specific session options during the matching process so scheduling and format align with daily life.
