Jessica Mujica , LCMHC

Jessica Mujica is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina with four years of clinical experience. She holds a Bachelor of Social and Behavioral Sciences with a minor in Sexuality Studies and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a focus on addictions, and she brings that training to a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, and LGBT-related issues.

Jessica practices from a stance of respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person's distinct needs. Her work spans individual and family issues, parenting and intimacy-related concerns, grief and loss, ADHD and attention challenges, process and substance addictions, anger and self-esteem difficulties, and the unique stresses of first responders and multicultural clients. She also supports people exploring non-traditional sexual cultures, polyamory, and gender dysphoria.

Using client-centered methods alongside evidence-informed techniques, she aims to empower clients to identify goals and build practical coping skills. She frames therapy as a collaborative journey, meeting people where they are and supporting gradual change toward a more fulfilling life.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Jessica draws on client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client's values and goals guide the work. This approach emphasizes active listening and collaboration to help people feel heard and to build self-directed change.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and panic. Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT - is another tool she employs when emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship skills are primary concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape a tailored plan that evolves over time.

Online therapy with Jessica is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, limited mobility, or clients in different locations. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy into real life.
