About Jessica
Jessica Charbonneau meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps that fit everyday life. She emphasizes strengths and choices so clients can feel more steady when stress or loss feels overwhelming. Jessica is a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, based in New York with many years of practice behind her.
She helps people navigate anxiety, stress, depression, and reactions to trauma and abuse. She also supports those facing big life changes and the exhaustion that can come from caregiving or compassionate work.
Background and approach
Conversations are plain and direct so each session leaves people with something they can try between meetings. Her work blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness strategies. That mix makes it easier to notice difficult thoughts and still take actions that match a person’s values.
Sessions are client-centered, which means the pace and focus follow what the person brings in each week. Jessica draws on two decades of experience to adjust methods to fit real life. She aims for tools that are simple to use and repeatable when stress rises again.
Practical goals might include clearer communication at work, better sleep, fewer avoidant habits, or calmer responses to triggers. People who choose her can expect respectful listening, straightforward feedback, and a focus on what they want to change. The work is collaborative and aimed at small, steady shifts that add up over time.

Online support
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions when someone wants to focus on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, mood problems, and stress. Mindfulness-based techniques help people slow down automatic reactions and increase awareness of the present moment, which supports emotion regulation and reduces reactivity.Choosing the right approach is part of the work in early sessions. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If something doesn’t fit, adjustments are made so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who process better in writing. These options make it easier to maintain steady work on goals across a busy life.
