Jessica Hanson , LCSW

Jessica Hanson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who uses a strengths-based approach to help individuals and families navigate loss, caregiving challenges, and major life transitions. She centers empathy and respect when supporting people through grief and life-changing diagnoses, creating space for families to share, learn, and heal.

With ten years of experience providing support to individuals and caregivers impacted by dementia and mood-related concerns, she draws on an integrated approach that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and psychotherapy. Her work emphasizes practical tools and strategies that promote dignity, resilience, and emotional well-being for both clients and their care networks.

Her specialization in grief and loss also extends to pet bereavement, addressing the often overlooked and intense emotions tied to chronic or terminal pet care, end-of-life decisions, and the process of pet surrender. Jessica aims to empower families and caregivers with knowledge and coping skills while guiding clients toward healing and growth. She recognizes that reaching out for support is a meaningful first step and offers professional, compassionate care throughout the therapeutic journey.

Could Online Therapy Be a Good Fit for You?

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One of the primary advantages is flexibility - individuals can connect in the way that feels most comfortable, choosing from video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care.

Licensed professionals offer these services, and clients typically have the option to switch therapists if they are seeking a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides accessible access to therapists and a range of therapeutic approaches that support coping, problem solving, and personal growth.
