Tessica Taylor, LPC

Tessica Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She brings seven years of counseling experience and a background as a school counselor to her work. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, anger, and life transitions.

Her style is straightforward and respectful. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are aimed at practical steps that fit into daily life and small skills people can try between meetings.

Tessica uses several well-known approaches, including cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to manage intense emotions. She also draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person's goals and values.

Her experience includes work in public schools as a certified school counselor, which informs how she talks about parenting, behavior, and development. That background means she often focuses on clear, teachable strategies and real-world problem solving.

People can expect a collaborative process that looks at immediate concerns and builds toward longer-term goals. Tessica supports work on relationships, grief, self-esteem, sleep and eating issues, addictions, ADHD, and career questions, among other concerns.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

The therapist uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and then tests small behavioral changes that can reduce anxiety and depression. CBT is practical and often focuses on skills a person can try between sessions.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help manage intense emotions and improve emotion regulation. DBT techniques include breathing and grounding practices, distress tolerance, and strategies to improve interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose the methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences rather than sticking to a single method. This lets sessions adapt as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation for deeper work. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or homework follow-up. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep skills practice consistent between meetings.
