About Jessica

Jessica Harp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina. She brings eight years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use when life feels overwhelming. She works with clients who face stress, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem struggles, and helps people manage changes, grief, and career or parenting strain.

Before moving into independent practice, she held clinical roles including manager of clinical operations at a lodge, clinical program manager positions, and an inpatient clinical therapist role. Those positions shaped the way she organizes treatment and supports people through crises and transitions.

In sessions she blends several therapy styles to fit each person’s needs. She uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral approaches alongside acceptance-based work and client-centered listening. Motivational interviewing and skills from dialectical behavior work appear when someone needs help with emotional regulation or with changing patterns that aren’t working.

Jessica aims for clear goals each week and simple homework people can actually use. She pays attention to safety, coping skills, and practical problem solving while also listening to the stories behind symptoms. Many people come for help with relationship strain, addiction concerns, family of origin questions, or issues tied to trauma and loss.

Approaches that guide online work

Jessica uses cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT typically focuses on concrete strategies, problem solving, and homework that can be practiced between sessions.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and take meaningful action even when difficult feelings are present. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, and struggles with motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and suggest methods that fit your situation. You and the therapist decide collaboratively which techniques to try and adjust them over time.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. It can also let people use video or audio to continue care when life or location makes in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals will discuss which session pattern suits your schedule and goals.
