About Tessica
Tessica Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and anger. Tessica also supports clients dealing with relationship and family matters, grief, self-esteem, and sleep or eating concerns.
Her approach centers on listening and helping clients use their own strengths. She leans on client-centered work to understand each person’s goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to identify thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of daily life.
She incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when those are helpful. Solution-focused techniques are used to set short-term goals and track progress. Trauma-focused work is applied for people processing difficult past events.
In sessions she breaks things down into manageable steps and practices small skills you can use between meetings. Conversations stay practical and concrete, with clear strategies for coping with anxiety, parenting stress, or relationship strain. She emphasizes collaboration so clients help choose the next steps.
Tessica’s background also includes ten years as a certified school counselor working with children from prekindergarten through grade 12. That experience informs her work with parenting issues and family stress. She offers straightforward support aimed at practical change and clearer day-to-day functioning.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the person and building on their strengths. Online sessions can use that same emphasis by letting the client set goals and pace, while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about noticing thoughts and behaviors, testing them, and trying small changes. In virtual meetings, CBT often includes worksheets, behavioral experiments to try between sessions, and step-by-step skill practice for anxiety or sleep problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides tools for managing intense emotions and coping with distress. Online meetings can teach specific DBT skills such as grounding, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance so clients can use them when stress spikes.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick methods that match a client’s goals and preferences. If a technique isn’t helping, she will adjust the plan together with the client.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when that helps, and support practicing skills between meetings without needing extra travel time.
