Jessica Futoran, LMHC

Jessica Futoran is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of professional experience. She works with adults on common life stresses including anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, and anger. Jessica also addresses trauma, self-esteem, parenting concerns, and mood problems such as depression and bipolar disorder.

She uses practical, conversational therapy rather than long lectures. Sessions focus on identifying what is getting in the way and trying small, manageable changes. Jessica draws on Client-Centered methods to listen and build on a person’s strengths, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals.

Jessica acknowledges that faith matters to many clients and includes a Christian perspective when that fits the person’s wishes. She also supports people who prefer a nonspiritual approach and adapts to each person’s preferences. The work is collaborative and straightforward: talk through what’s happening, test new responses, and notice what helps.

Many clients come with day-to-day problems like workplace frustration, parenting stress, or simmering resentment in relationships. Jessica also sees issues tied to trauma, addictions, first responder and veteran concerns, fertility and adoption questions, and identity matters such as LGBT-related stress.

Her background includes practical tools for panic, PTSD, ADHD-related struggles, and compassion fatigue. Sessions aim to reduce the grip of intense emotions and build clearer ways to respond when anger or stress shows up.
