About Jennifer
Her work centers on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing relationship strains, parenting challenges, career stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Jealousy is listed among her focus areas and she addresses it alongside other relationship concerns.
Jennifer uses clear, practical methods in session. She listens first, then helps clients name patterns and try small changes. Sessions often include goal-setting, skills practice, and checking what worked between meetings.
Her clinical approaches include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She adapts these methods to the person in front of her rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
People who come to her often want relief from worry, help navigating life changes, or tools to manage strong emotions. Jennifer works to move clients from merely coping to feeling more in control of daily life.
How Jennifer’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead and helps people make sense of their feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills useful for strong or volatile emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences. Together they choose methods that fit the issue - whether that means skills practice, problem solving, or exploring difficult memories - so sessions feel useful and relevant.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for consistent check-ins after a stressful day. It can also let people try brief skills-focused sessions or longer problem-solving conversations depending on what they need. Licensed professionals help clients shape sessions to meet daily life demands and goals.
