Jessica Schmitt helps teens and adults across Indiana manage complex mental health conditions with thoughtful, individualized medication management at LifeStance Health. She works closely with each patient to understand their symptoms, goals, and medical history, creating treatment plans that support stability, symptom relief, and long-term wellness.
Jessica specializes in treating ADHD, anxiety, and depression, with experience supporting individuals facing a wide range of mental health concerns. She incorporates evidence-based approaches and may integrate elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness into care, while offering additional support for conditions such as bipolar disorder, trauma-related disorders, and sleep disturbances. Her work spans adolescents, teens, adults, and seniors, ensuring age-appropriate and responsive care.
She is especially passionate about supporting individuals who have been recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital. Jessica understands that this transition can feel overwhelming and provides attentive follow-up care to promote continuity, reduce the risk of relapse, and help patients regain confidence in their daily lives. Her approach emphasizes safety, consistency, and clear communication during this critical period.
Jessica also has experience working with diverse populations, including individuals in the LGBTQ+ community, first responders, and those connected to adoption or foster care. She strives to create a respectful, inclusive space where patients feel supported and understood.
Outside of her clinical work, Jessica enjoys spending time with her family, running, and cooking.
