About Jessica
Jessica Feider is an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) licensed in Minnesota with six years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, and depression, and pays attention to co-morbidity and mood concerns. She also focuses on smoking and vaping cessation, women's issues, and young adult issues.
Jessica uses a conversational, person-centered style where the client’s own perspective guides the work. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. She treats the person as the expert on their life and builds on existing strengths rather than starting from scratch.
Her approach mixes several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck or ambivalent about change, such as quitting smoking or reducing substance use.
Jessica aims to help people break problems into manageable steps. That might mean practicing a new coping skill between sessions or testing a small behavior change. Progress is measured in practical shifts - fewer anxious moments, reduced cravings, or steadier mood over time.
She frames therapy as collaborative work. Early sessions usually clarify goals and priorities, then focus on the skills or adjustments that fit those aims. For someone navigating early adulthood - school, work, relationships, money, or identity - this approach keeps the work relevant and usable.
How her therapeutic approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps people clarify priorities and decide what changes feel realistic for them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete tools for reducing anxiety and depressive patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That means trying skills, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to one fixed method.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in between classes or a video session that avoids travel. They are useful when someone needs regular skills practice, help with cravings or mood monitoring, or coaching through early adult transitions like starting work or moving out.
