Jennifer Such, LCSW

Jennifer Such is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience. She offers a calm, straightforward style and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and other life challenges.

Jennifer blends evidence-informed methods so sessions are practical and goal-focused. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside acceptance and mindfulness-based ideas to help people notice thinking patterns and try new behaviors. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when those approaches fit the situation.

Her experience spans hospital and community settings and includes work with adults and adolescents facing mood disorders, trauma, and substance concerns. That background informs a steady, problem-solving approach to hard moments like grief, parenting strain, career stress, and relationship difficulties.

In sessions she aims to be empathetic and nonjudgmental while helping people identify strengths and practical steps forward. Expect clear explanations, simple skills to practice between meetings, and a focus on what’s realistic for daily life.

Jennifer is licensed in Illinois and Texas and practices from Missouri. She offers sessions in English through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. People interested in starting are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule an initial appointment.

Using evidence-based approaches in online care

Jennifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors; CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress management. She also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which focuses on clarifying values and taking action even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Both approaches emphasize skills you can practice between sessions to see small changes over time.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your goals, preferences, and what’s been tried before, and then recommend strategies or a mix of methods. You and the therapist can adjust the plan as you go to make sure it feels useful and doable.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the work, phone sessions can be simpler if bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging are convenient for brief check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to continue progress from different locations.
