About Jessica

Jessica Katz offers calm, steady support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and life changes. She focuses on practical steps that help people feel more in control. Jessica brings 21 years of clinical experience and works from Utah.

She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Jessica uses clear, straightforward language in sessions. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps set doable goals.

Background and approach

Common topics she addresses include parenting challenges, relationship and family strain, grief, addiction concerns, self-esteem, and career stress. She also helps with ADHD, body image, and coping after separation or divorce. Trauma work is part of her practice and she uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, among other approaches.

She blends attachment-based ideas with client-centered and cognitive behavioral tools to match what a person needs. That often means learning new skills, practicing them in-between sessions, and checking what is helping. Jessica describes the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process.

She expects patience and active effort from the person seeking help, and she offers steady guidance when people feel stuck. Sessions move at a practical pace aimed at improving day-to-day functioning. Her background includes long-term clinical work across several states before settling in Utah.

Jessica frames her work with respect and compassion and invites people to take the next step when they feel ready.

Online support

How Jessica’s approaches translate to online therapy

Jessica blends EMDR with client-centered and cognitive behavioral strategies to help people address difficult memories, manage symptoms, and build practical skills. EMDR offers a way to process trauma-related memories and reduce their emotional impact, while client-centered work emphasizes listening and building a relationship that respects the person’s pace. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying out new behaviors to change day-to-day outcomes.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Jessica will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences and together they will choose techniques that feel like the best fit. Treatment plans can change over time as needs evolve, and she supports that exploration rather than imposing a single method.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people meet face to face when a deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to use video. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, and when a shorter format fits a busy schedule. These options help people access consistent care around work, family, and daily demands.
