Jenny Collier, LCSW

Jenny Collier is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also supports those facing trauma, parenting strain, sleep or eating difficulties, anger, and career or life transitions. Jenny makes space for practical steps and honest conversation so people can take clearer next steps.

Jenny uses short, direct sessions focused on skills and problem-solving. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness to build tolerance for difficult feelings.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She asks about daily routines and what matters most to each person. Sessions often include simple practices to use between meetings, and small experiments to test what works in real life.

Jenny brings eleven years of professional experience in clinical settings. Her background includes helping people recover from trauma, manage obsessive or compulsive behaviors, and cope with mood differences such as bipolar concerns. She pays attention to co-occurring issues like ADHD or autism when they affect day-to-day functioning.

Sessions are offered in English and she is licensed in Kentucky as an LCSW. People connect with her through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what fits their schedule and needs.

Practical approaches for online therapy and skills practice

Jenny commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is hands-on and focuses on small, testable changes that can reduce anxiety, improve mood, or ease sleep and eating struggles.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make space for difficult emotions while clarifying values and committed actions. ACT can be useful for coping with grief, ongoing stress, and life transitions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are woven in when emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jenny discusses goals and preferences, then adapts methods to what fits the person's life. She tries simple techniques first and adjusts plans based on what helps.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for focused skill teaching and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a headset is preferred. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, between-session coaching, or when written thinking feels most useful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep work on practical skills between meetings.
