About Jessica
Jessica Van Horn is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with eight years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, low self-esteem, and struggles with motivation and confidence. Jessica also lists codependency and related relationship concerns among her focus areas.
She treats the person rather than a label. Sessions are conversational and practical. Jessica helps people name what is happening, notice patterns that keep them stuck, and try small changes that feel doable. Expect direct, plain talk and concrete steps to practice between meetings.
Her approach leans on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address traumatic events, addictive behaviors, and mood concerns. Jessica pays attention to how relationships, family history, and past losses shape current choices. She works with issues like abandonment, family of origin problems, communication difficulties, and intimacy-related struggles.
Jessica guides people through immediate concerns such as sleeping problems, parenting strain, and coping with life changes. She also supports those managing chronic illness, body-image struggles, eating-related issues, and co-occurring conditions. The work often moves between understanding patterns and testing new behaviors in everyday life.
Sessions are offered in English and organized through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules an initial appointment. Jessica practices in Michigan as an LMSW and brings eight years of client work to each meeting.
How sessions work
How evidence-based techniques translate online
Jessica uses evidence-based approaches to help people change patterns that keep them stuck. One common approach focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. That method breaks problems into clear steps and offers practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and motivation problems. Another common technique looks at how past experiences and relationships shape present reactions; it helps people notice recurring relationship patterns and try new ways of responding.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss options, consider your goals and preferences, and adjust methods as you go. The therapist and client work together to find which techniques feel most useful for daily life and relationship challenges.

Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a weekday break, eliminate commute time, or make check-ins easier on busy days. Online sessions can allow for shorter follow-ups or regular weekly meetings depending on what you and the therapist decide together.
