About Jessica
Jessica Murph is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. She uses straightforward, practical steps so clients can make changes that matter. Jess centers respect and affirmation in sessions and speaks openly about queer and sex-positive care.
She offers a welcoming, person-centered space where people can talk about tough experiences like abuse, emotional manipulation, and loss. Sessions aim to build coping skills, reduce overwhelm, and improve communication.
Background and approach
Jess pays close attention to how relationships and family patterns shape current struggles. Her work often supports neurodivergent people, including those with ADHD and autism, with strategies tailored to how someone thinks and learns. She also addresses issues such as eating and body image, intimacy questions, addiction, and parenting stress in practical, down-to-earth terms.
Therapy blends evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with approaches that focus on attachment and relationship patterns. The Gottman Method is part of her toolkit for relationship-focused work. Treatment plans are adjusted to the person in front of her rather than following one fixed path.
Jess practices virtually throughout Texas and frames goals around resilience, authenticity, and self-compassion. She encourages steady progress through small, doable changes and clearer communication. The aim is better daily functioning, stronger connections, and a kinder relationship with oneself.

Online support
How therapy approaches guide online sessions
Jessica uses the Gottman Method for relationship-focused work, which emphasizes communication patterns, managing conflict, and rebuilding trust through clear exercises and conversation tools. That approach can help people who want practical skills to improve how they relate to others.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy is another part of her work and looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and emotional needs.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they try methods, check what helps, and adjust the plan so it fits how the person thinks and lives.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for deeper conversations and exercises, phone is useful when bandwidth or hands-free time matter, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping consistent progress.
