Disclaimer

Last updated October 17, 2026

The information on this website is provided by OC Trauma Therapy LLC (Jessica Dineen, LPCC) for general educational and informational purposes only. Please read this Disclaimer carefully before using the site.

Not medical or mental health advice

Nothing on this website is medical advice, a diagnosis, or a substitute for individualized mental health treatment. Articles, descriptions of treatment, and any other content are general in nature and may not apply to your situation. Do not delay seeking care, or disregard professional advice, because of something you read here.

No therapist-client relationship

Using this website, calling, or sending an email or message does not create a therapist-client relationship. That relationship begins only after a consultation, acceptance as a client, and signed informed consent and practice agreements.

If you are in crisis

This website and my voicemail and email are not monitored for emergencies. If you are in immediate danger or believe you may harm yourself or someone else, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. You can also call or text 988, the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, at any time. If you are in an abusive or unsafe relationship, the National Domestic Violence Hotline is available at 1-800-799-7233.

Telehealth, licensure, and location

I provide telehealth services only, to adults age 18 and older who are physically located in California or Arkansas, where I am licensed, at the time of each session. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arkansas. I cannot provide therapy to clients located in other states or countries. Telehealth has benefits and limitations, which we will discuss before treatment begins.

Treatment approaches and results

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and other trauma-focused approaches. Descriptions of EMDR, EMDR intensives, trauma therapy, and recovery from narcissistic abuse, complex trauma, or high-conflict co-parenting situations are educational. Results vary from person to person, and no specific outcome, timeline, or level of improvement is promised or guaranteed. Terms such as "narcissistic abuse" describe patterns of harmful relationship behavior and are not clinical diagnoses of any person.

Not legal advice

I do not provide legal advice, custody evaluations, or forensic opinions. Information about divorce, co-parenting, or high-conflict situations is not a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney.

Testimonials, media, and third-party content

Podcasts, interviews, communities, and other third-party content or links shown on this site are provided for your convenience. They do not constitute endorsement of every view expressed there, and I am not responsible for third-party content.

Confidentiality and communications

Please do not send detailed clinical or personal health information through this website, email, or text message. These channels may not be fully secure. Confidentiality for clients is governed by my informed consent documents and applicable law.
