About Tessica
Tessica Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. She supports clients working through anger, life transitions, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, and self-esteem struggles. Tessica emphasizes strengths and practical steps that make day-to-day life easier.
She approaches therapy as a collaborative process and treats the person, not just the problem. Tessica uses client-centered work to build on what already helps, and she draws on cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior methods to teach coping skills and change unhelpful patterns. She also uses solution-focused and trauma-focused strategies when those fit a person's needs.
Across seven years of professional experience, Tessica has worked in school settings as a certified school counselor and in clinical roles. Her background includes supporting people facing grief, caregiving stress, codependency concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and mood challenges such as depression and bipolar symptoms.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical tools. Tessica helps clients set realistic steps, practice new responses, and track progress between meetings. She frames therapy as a partnership where the client's preferences guide which techniques are used.
People meet her to sort out communication and control issues, work through adoption or blended family topics, or address trauma and domestic violence effects. She encourages honest conversation and steady small changes rather than quick fixes.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Tessica uses client-centered work to follow a person's lead and build on existing strengths. This approach focuses on listening closely and helping people notice what already helps them, which can be useful for everyday stress, self-esteem concerns, and relationship challenges.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, and it can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when emotions feel overwhelming.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past, then try methods that fit the person's needs. Adjustments are made as progress and feedback guide the work.
