About Jessica

Jessica Hartman brings a client-centered, strengths-based approach to her practice, combining relational warmth with practical therapeutic tools. She draws on two decades of experience in mental health to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Jessica also works with issues related to parenting, anger, self-esteem, career struggles, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and LGBTQ matters, and she has additional focus on women’s issues and young adult concerns. Jessica holds a Master of Social Work from the College of St.

Catherine/University of St. Thomas and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of North Dakota.

She is credentialed as an LCSW and LICSW and has practiced in diverse settings including schools, day-treatment programs, in-home services, outpatient clinics, and virtual formats. Having worked in both rural communities and larger cities such as Minneapolis/St.

Paul and Phoenix, she offers a flexible perspective shaped by varied clinical environments. Her style emphasizes respect, compassion, and collaboration, using cognitive-behavioral strategies, solution-focused techniques, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness to help clients build on existing strengths and develop practical coping skills.

Jessica aims to create an inclusive, non-judgmental space that supports clients’ goals and personal growth.

Integrating Practical Therapies with Online Sessions

Jessica often draws on cognitive-behavioral therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems because it focuses on skill-building and measurable changes. She also uses solution-focused techniques that concentrate on clients' goals and immediate strengths, offering short-term, goal-oriented strategies to address specific concerns and move toward practical improvements.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist partners with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then adapts methods over time so the plan aligns with what is working and what the client wants to accomplish. This teamwork helps match therapeutic tools to the person rather than applying a single method automatically.

Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and use brief or ongoing exchanges depending on what a client prefers. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and solution-focused techniques effectively across these formats to support progress and coping in everyday life.
