About Jesse

Jesse Schiavone is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of counseling experience. He practices in Virginia and focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, anger, self-esteem, depression, addictions, family issues, trauma, grief, intimacy-related concerns, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life changes.

Jesse works with adults to sort through everyday problems and longer-term struggles. He uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent and what can change with small steps. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on real-life adjustments rather than academic explanations.

His approach draws on client-centered methods, where the person’s goals guide the work. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and solution-focused strategies to build clear steps forward. These methods are used to address mood, relationship tensions, and patterns that keep recurring.

Jesse has experience supporting people dealing with family-related stress, commitment issues, communication problems, and family of origin concerns. He also addresses forgiveness, infidelity, jealousy, isolation, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Conversations can include coaching elements aimed at practical change.

Sessions are conversational and task-oriented when helpful. Jesse can help create short-term plans for coping and longer-term strategies for relationship or mood concerns. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling options.

How sessions work

How Jesse’s approaches work in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and priorities. The therapist listens deeply and follows what the client says matters most, helping the client clarify choices and next steps. This approach helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem, and deciding what to change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. A few practical techniques can reduce anxiety and shift patterns that keep problems going. CBT is useful for mood concerns, anxiety, and anger management.

Solution-focused therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps toward clear goals. Sessions often set short-term actions and check how those changes are working. This method suits people who want practical plans for communication, commitment issues, or coping with life changes.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods and adjust based on what helps most. Together they decide which tools and pace fit the client’s needs and preferences.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a weeknight or a lunch break. It can also allow shorter check-ins when bandwidth is limited or make regular weekly sessions easier to keep without extra travel.
