Approaches Jenna Uses and How Online Therapy Supports Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into more effective patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges by focusing on practical strategies and skills to manage symptoms and reach goals.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills-based training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. DBT can be especially useful for people navigating intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or patterns of reactivity that interfere with daily life.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented approach that helps people explore and strengthen their own motivation for change. It is useful when someone feels uncertain about change or wants to build momentum toward personal goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Jenna works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, preferences, and goals. She tailors the therapeutic plan over time, combining techniques as appropriate to support progress.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into busy lives and to maintain continuity when schedules or location change. These formats allow therapists and licensed professionals to provide consistent, flexible support while clients engage in therapy from environments that feel most comfortable and accessible to them.
