Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
When you're living your life just a little bit differently from other people, it can feel like the world just wasn't made for you - and it sucks. Whether it's how or who you love, how your brain works, the way you seem to worry about absolutely everything, or the decisions you make about what you want your life to look like, it can feel super isolating and discouraging to not feel seen and understood by those around you. When I work with clients, that is my main goal - to help them feel seen, understood, and accepted for who they are. Sure, we will work on your anxiety, I'll give you new techniques to try and different ways to think about the world around you, and we'll explore practical advice for things like workplace stress, relationship issues, and family drama, but I also want to help you like YOU more than you ever have before. It might sound cliche (in fact, I know it does), but developing the ability to back yourself, accept your emotions without judgement, and make decisions that feel truly right to you can make all the difference in the world. AND with online therapy, we can do all of this from the comfort of your own home - no traffic, finding a parking spot, or worrying about being on time! I work with clients virtually throughout Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Maryland.
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
About My Practice
I provide specialized online therapy for adults (18+) navigating anxiety, trauma, and complex life challenges. Through evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in a secure virtual environment, I create a supportive space for healing and personal transformation from wherever you are. My approach focuses on getting to the root of what's creating your struggles rather than just managing surface symptoms.
My Approach
My practice centers on what I call "updating your operating system"—we explore the roots of your patterns, understand how you got where you are, and consciously choose where you want to go next. This isn't about dwelling in the past; it's about understanding yourself more deeply so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. I bring together evidence-based techniques like CBT, ACT, Coherence Therapy, and clinical hypnosis with mindfulness practices, creating sessions that are collaborative and organic rather than rigid or prescribed.
Here's what might surprise you: one of the most powerful dimensions of real change is acceptance. Not the passive, resigned kind, but the courageous turning toward where you are with care and curiosity. This approach allows you to look squarely at reality and move forward from a place of truth rather than resistance.
Areas of Specialization
I specialize in supporting clients with:
Anxiety: Managing generalized worry, social anxiety, perfectionism-driven anxiety, decision paralysis, and the anxiety that stems from unprocessed trauma
Trauma Processing: Working through childhood trauma, parentification, relational wounds, and past experiences that continue to shape how you move through the world today
Complex Family Dynamics: Navigating challenging relationships with adult children, aging parents, partners, and other family members where boundaries feel blurred
Grief and Loss: Processing loss in its many forms—of people, relationships, the life you thought you'd be living, or your sense of purpose and identity
Patterns That No Longer Serve: Breaking cycles of people-pleasing, over-functioning, perfectionism, and abandoning your own needs to care for others
Benefits of Online Therapy
My virtual practice offers several advantages:
- Access specialized trauma-informed therapy from the comfort of your own space
- Greater scheduling flexibility across multiple time zones
- Elimination of travel time and transportation barriers
- A familiar environment that may enhance feelings of safety during vulnerable work
Getting Started
I work best with people who are managing to keep their heads above water but know something needs to shift—those experiencing mild to moderate concerns rather than acute crises. I welcome clients who are curious, open to looking at their lives holistically, and interested in a partnership approach. If you're willing to do the sometimes uncomfortable work of growth and want genuine understanding rather than therapy-speak, we'll likely be a good match.
My style is warm, direct, and refreshingly real. Research shows the most important factor in successful therapy is whether you feel genuinely understood and emotionally safe with your therapist—building that authentic connection is central to how I work.
Licensed in Colorado, California, and Maryland. Specialized training in Coherence Therapy, ACT, CBT, and clinical hypnosis.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, but I also address co-occurring depression, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies.
