About Jessica
Jessica Easterling, LPC brings nearly two decades of counseling experience to her work in Louisiana. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and aims to help people navigate parenting challenges, relationship strains, grief, anxiety, and major life changes. Her style is warm and respectful and she centers the person seeking help in setting the pace and goals.
Jessica uses a client-centered approach that focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience.
Background and approach
She also draws on solution-focused methods to set clear, short-term goals and build practical steps toward change. Sessions tend to be goal-oriented yet paced by the client's needs. Parents often find her useful for improving communication, managing anger, handling blended family concerns, and coping with caregiver stress.
She also works with people facing mood changes, depressive symptoms, or the frustration and distraction that can come with ADHD. Jessica pays attention to everyday pressures like money worries and isolation as part of the bigger picture. Her background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling and a Louisiana LPC credential.
Across her career she has worked with both adults and children on issues such as self-esteem, behavior, grief, and relationship difficulties. That variety informs a practical, flexible approach in sessions. In the first meetings she focuses on understanding what matters most to the client and setting achievable steps.
Therapy can include talking through feelings, practicing new communication skills, and planning realistic changes parents can try between sessions. Jessica aims to make the work useful in daily life.

How her approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on being heard and respected. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s lead to help uncover personal strengths and choices. This approach is useful for exploring feelings around parenting, relationships, or life changes.Solution-focused therapy narrows in on small, achievable steps. It helps set clear short-term goals and track practical progress, which can be helpful for managing stress, improving communication, or handling specific parenting challenges.
Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. Jessica will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then try strategies together. The approach can shift over time as needs change, combining listening with goal-driven tasks.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls let people meet face to face from their chosen location. Phone sessions are good when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits better. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for quick updates, brief problem-solving, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy parenting life.
