About Tessica
Tessica Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, and changes in life. Tessica approaches clients with respect and straightforward support.
She believes people carry strengths that can help them move forward. With seven years of clinical experience, Tessica draws on work done in schools and community settings. She has a background as a school counselor working with PK-12 students, which shaped her practical, down-to-earth approach.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals and simple skills that can be used day to day. Her style centers on listening first and tailoring tools to each person. Tessica uses client-centered methods so the conversation follows what matters most to the client.
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build different behavior patterns. For people processing difficult events, Tessica brings trauma-focused ideas to help manage symptoms and move toward stability. Dialectical behavior and solution-focused strategies are woven in when teaching emotion regulation and problem-solving skills.
These methods are explained plainly and practiced during sessions. Clients can expect a collaborative, goal-oriented experience. Tessica supports people as they try new ways of coping, practice boundaries, and rebuild confidence.
Her aim is to help people leave sessions with at least one useful step to try between meetings.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Tessica commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused therapy when working online. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep problems. Trauma-focused therapy addresses responses to upsetting events and offers ways to reduce strong reactions and build coping routines for daily life.She also draws from client-centered therapy to keep the work focused on each person's priorities. Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and try approaches that fit their needs, adjusting as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and practicing skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging fit quick check-ins, short skill practice, or times when typing feels easier. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
