About Jesse

Jesse Weight is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing trauma, grief, substance use, and identity-related concerns. She uses clear, practical language and focuses on helping clients get skills that make daily life easier. Jesse brings eight years of clinical experience to her work in Oregon and provides services in English to people both locally and internationally.

Her approach mixes evidence-informed therapies with an existential and feminist outlook. Sessions are nonjudgmental and aim to make sense of hard experiences while building useful coping tools. Jesse pays attention to how stress, anxiety, sleep, eating, and relationships interact in a person's life.

She has worked with people dealing with chronic illness, pain, and cancer-related concerns, and supports those navigating identity, intimacy, and attachment issues. Jesse also addresses addictions, self-harm behaviors, and compassion fatigue in her practice.

Jesse uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and EMDR in ways that fit each person. She talks with clients about goals and picks straightforward techniques they can try between sessions. The emphasis is on practical, measurable steps rather than vague promises.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability. Jesse aims to give clients tools they can use long after therapy ends.

How these approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and building small, committed actions that match what matters to the person. It helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by teaching flexible ways to respond to difficult thoughts and feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing stress.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories by guiding attention while processing those memories. It is commonly used for trauma and related symptoms and is integrated carefully into treatment plans.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying one approach first and adjusting over time based on what helps.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Since session formats are arranged through the matching and scheduling steps, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions will be offered. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and EMDR techniques to work effectively in remote sessions and help clients practice skills between meetings.
