LPC, 12 years of experience
I am Jessica Burton a Licensed Professional Counselor in both Georgia (License #012600) and South Carolina (License #8977) I graduated from Benedict College (2010) and South University (2012) with over 12 years of experience working in counseling/ providing therapy services. I am a passionate therapist with experience in assisting others to become their best selves. I have worked, in numerous environments/ settings, such as prison settings, out-patient, and in-patient facilities/ hospitalizations for adolescents/ adults, individuals, families, adolescents, and individuals with dual mental health diagnoses. I believe in promoting a safe space to have real/ authentic conversations, where I will meet you where you are, to identify and explore realistic steps to implement within your everyday life, using supportive therapy and holistic approach, CBT, and DBT skills and techniques for developing your very own personalized treatment plan. Together we will embark on a personalized journey to break through limiting belief systems, to begin promoting positive reinforcement of empowering beliefs.
All client's will be afforded a safe space to process their thoughts and feelings.
I help individuals manage and cope with situational stressors using mindfulness, and holistic approaches, CBT, DBT skills and techniques, positive affirmations to implement within their everyday lives, and encourage/ explore realistic self-care techniques. Play therapy for kids to process and explore feelings and emotions.
Initially, when meeting with me I intentionally promote a safe space for individuals to assess their individual goals and unique current situation, to build rapport. My expertise is working with ages 5 and up, learning to regulate emotions, manage depression/ anxiety, interpersonal conflict, work-related or academic stressors, disorders & addictions, and trauma. Additionally, I have varied experiences working with family, couples, individual and group therapy.

After struggling to find the right fit with multiple therapists who either discharged me or weren’t helpful, connecting with Jessica has been a true turning point. She is a ray of hope in my life. I genuinely feel that she has her patients’ best interests at heart, and her care shows in every session. Jessica listens deeply and responds in a way that feels both genuine and thoughtful. Her compassion and insight have made such a difference, and I’m truly grateful to have her guidance and support.
