Jessica Henderson

I'm Jessica Henderson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) providing virtual therapy to adolescents and adults throughout Virginia. I specialize in helping individuals navigate addiction recovery, legal involvement, mental health challenges, and major life transitions with compassion, respect, and evidence-based care. My professional background includes years of experience working in correctional settings, community behavioral health, and Recovery Court, where I've partnered with individuals facing substance use disorders, co-occurring mental health conditions, trauma, and the unique challenges associated with involvement in the criminal justice system. This experience has given me a deep understanding of the barriers many people face while rebuilding their lives and creating lasting change. While I have specialized expertise in working with justice-involved individuals, I also welcome clients seeking support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Every client is treated with dignity in a safe, nonjudgmental environment where healing and personal growth are the priority. My approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care. Together, we'll identify your strengths, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting progress. Whether you're seeking support for recovery, navigating the legal system, managing emotional challenges, or simply looking for a trusted therapist to help you move forward, I'm committed to meeting you where you are and walking alongside you every step of the way.
