Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Jesse directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
Approaches that fit your daily life online
Jesse uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their life stories and see different possibilities. Narrative work is useful when patterns feel stuck and you want to try new ways of understanding events and relationships.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on values and small actions that move you toward what matters. ACT often helps with anxiety, stress, and motivation by teaching simple skills to handle uncomfortable thoughts and feelings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her toolkit for practical problem solving. CBT breaks big problems into manageable steps and helps change unhelpful thinking that fuels sleep, eating, or mood difficulties.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jesse will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts the plan as new information comes up so the process stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy gives flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone sessions can fit into a short break, and live chat or text messaging work well for quick check-ins or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep momentum, manage symptoms between sessions, and balance therapy with school, work, or caregiving.
