About Zereana

Background and approach

Dr. Jess-Huff emphasizes behavioral activation within a collaborative, skills-focused framework so clients leave sessions with practical strategies to apply between appointments.

Her work integrates several empirically supported models to tailor interventions to each person's needs while keeping language and goals accessible. Licensed as an LMFT in Texas and Florida, she addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD.

With training in treating process addictions and a clinical interest in gender and sexual identity issues, Dr.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life



Dr. Jess-Huff frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore relational patterns and how early bonds influence current emotional responses and relationship difficulties. Each approach is explained in clear, practical terms so clients can see how techniques link to their everyday goals.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then adapt methods over time so the plan remains relevant and effective. Sessions are structured to include teaching, practice, and review so progress is measurable and meaningful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These formats let clients schedule sessions around work, caregiving, and other commitments while maintaining continuity of treatment. The variety of formats supports different communication styles and makes it easier to practice skills between sessions.
