Jesse Weight , LPC

Jesse Weight (she/her) is an EMDR-certified Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people recover from trauma in its many forms. She brings focused training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - a therapy that targets traumatic memories - alongside a practice shaped by Existential and feminist principles that emphasize individual meaning, agency, and practical change.

Jesse has developed expertise over years working with grief, disability-related concerns, substance use disorders, and self-harming behaviors. She also provides gender-affirming care and support for LGBT clients, approaching each person with inclusivity and without judgment. Her aim is to offer therapies that are grounded in evidence and delivered with transparency so clients understand the rationale behind the work.

Therapy with Jesse emphasizes skill-building and tangible progress. She describes her role as helping clients gain tools and insight - an owner's manual for how their brain and coping patterns work - so they can navigate stress, relationships, and life transitions more effectively. If at any time a person feels they are in crisis or need urgent help, they should call 1-800-273-TALK or 911 immediately.

Approaches and Online Support for Trauma and Growth

Jesse integrates EMDR and Existential therapy into her online practice. EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - uses structured processing to help the brain reprocess distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming; it is commonly used for trauma and intrusive memories. Existential therapy helps clients explore questions of meaning, choice, and values, supporting people facing major life transitions, grief, or identity concerns by clarifying what matters most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jesse collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts treatment as progress unfolds so the work remains practical and person-centered.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can access licensed professionals from locations that suit them. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy schedules, and receive ongoing support through formats that feel most comfortable for the individual.
