Jessica Katz

Jessica Katz is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing anger, anxiety, stress, grief, and life transitions. She brings 21 years of clinical experience and a calm, steady manner to sessions. Jessica aims to meet each person with respect and compassion. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where both people take turns leading the work.

Jessica blends practical techniques with broader meaning-focused conversations. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns that keep problems going. She also draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is part of her toolkit for processing traumatic memories.

Her background includes practice in multiple states before relocating to Utah. That variety has shaped a flexible approach to different life situations. She has worked with issues that include parenting, adoption and foster care concerns, relationship and communication problems, addiction, disordered eating, and ADHD-related struggles.

Sessions are described by Jessica as a gentle but honest process. She uses straightforward language and teaches coping skills people can use between visits. The aim is to build skills so people regain a sense of control and feel able to lead their lives again.

Jessica frames therapy as gradual learning. There will be difficult moments, she writes, and those moments are part of getting better. She presents herself as a supportive partner who helps people practice new ways of responding and managing intense feelings.

How Jessica's Approaches Fit Online Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions. It helps people understand patterns in closeness, trust, and anger. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance, giving clients space to find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often useful for anxiety, depression, and anger.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jessica will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can shift as needs change, and she aims to check in regularly about what is helping.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Many people find virtual sessions reduce travel time and allow for shorter, focused check-ins around work or caregiving schedules.
