About Jessica
Jessica Wiggs, LPC, uses practical, evidence-based approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, and trauma. She centers each session on the person's goals and strengths and encourages steps toward greater independence and resilience. She draws on six years of clinical experience that include overseeing daily operations at an inpatient psychiatric facility and supervising clinical staff.
That background included psychiatric assessments, drug evaluations, and advocacy work with survivors at a District Attorney’s office.
Background and approach
Those roles shaped her understanding of crisis care and longer-term recovery. In sessions she focuses on building practical skills. She helps people identify patterns, manage overwhelming feelings, and practice new ways of coping.
She also supports those working through identity and intimacy concerns, eating and body image problems, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. Jessica values collaboration. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and helps them use their strengths to make change.
She pays attention to autonomy and personal growth when planning treatment steps. Her approach is down-to-earth and goal oriented. People meet a clinician who listens, offers clear options, and helps set manageable goals.
Jessica works with English-speaking clients from Georgia and provides several online formats to fit different schedules and needs.
Approaches for online work and practical skill building
Jessica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills you can use day to day. One approach emphasizes learning coping and emotion-regulation skills to reduce anxiety and manage stress; this helps when feelings become overwhelming and you need clear steps to feel steadier. Another approach focuses on processing trauma in a paced way while strengthening resilience and safety, which can support recovery after abuse or other traumatic events.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jessica works with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, strengths, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier on days without camera use. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching between sessions, or a way to track progress over time. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving routines.
