About Jessica
Jessica Pino is a licensed clinical social worker based in Florida who uses practical, skills-based therapy to help people feel steadier in day-to-day life. She draws on approaches like acceptance and commitment work, cognitive strategies, and mindfulness to address stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addictions. Jessica focuses on clear goals and simple tools that people can use between sessions.
With 15 years of experience, she helps people talk through self-esteem, guilt and shame, and the fallout of difficult life changes.
Background and approach
She also supports those facing mood disorders including bipolar disorder and disruptive mood challenges, as well as concerns like obsessive thoughts, eating problems, and impulse control. Jessica pays attention to cultural background and how it shapes each person’s experience. Her style is collaborative and straightforward.
Sessions often include skills practice, thought work, and grounding or mindfulness exercises. When trauma is part of the story, she may use EMDR-informed strategies alongside other methods to reduce distress and increase safety in daily life. Jessica also works with issues tied to aging, caregiving stress, immigration concerns, and compassion fatigue.
She addresses substance use and codependency with motivational techniques and clear planning. The aim is to help people build routines that support stability and more reliable emotion regulation. People who choose Jessica can expect a calm, nonjudgmental presence and concrete steps to try between appointments.
She explains tools in plain language and adjusts them to fit each person's pace and goals.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. It often includes short exercises and homework to change daily routines.Jessica approaches treatment collaboratively. She will discuss different methods and help the person decide which approach fits their needs and goals. Together they adjust techniques over time based on what actually helps in day-to-day life rather than assuming one method will always work.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and EMDR-informed work, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and text or live chat are useful for brief check-ins or between-session support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on skill building and progress.
