About Jennifer
Jennifer uses straightforward conversation to help people make sense of what they are feeling. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also brings mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas to help people tolerate difficult emotions without getting overwhelmed.
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Jennifer listens first, then suggests small skills and experiments to try between visits. She helps people set realistic steps for change, whether that means addressing workplace stress, addiction concerns, or relationship and family strain.
Her background includes work with caregivers, older adults, and people coping with serious health issues such as cancer and end-of-life concerns. Jennifer has six years of clinical experience and holds a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker credential, LICSW.
She works with people who feel isolated or stuck and wants to help them find meaning and renewed purpose. Her style is warm and practical, aiming to build coping skills and clearer daily routines that make life more manageable.
Using practical approaches online
Jennifer integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that suit online work. CBT focuses on noticing thoughts and changing behaviors through structured steps and simple exercises, which adapt well to video or messaging check-ins. ACT helps people accept difficult emotions and clarify values so they can take meaningful action even when feelings are hard to handle.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit the person's goals and daily life. That may mean starting with CBT skills for quick stress relief, then adding acceptance and mindfulness practices to build long-term resilience.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video lets people practice skills in real time and read nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging offer brief support between meetings or when writing feels easier. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
