As an LPC - a licensed mental health professional trained to provide counseling and psychotherapy - she aims to support people through change and to collaborate on realistic goals and practical coping strategies.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer uses approaches such as Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy, and she also draws on Trauma-Focused techniques when needed. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotional responses, helping clients address issues like abandonment, relationship conflicts, and intimacy concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's perspective and personal strengths, offering a nonjudgmental space to explore self-esteem, life purpose, and decisions.

When trauma has played a role, Trauma-Focused methods help individuals process difficult experiences and reduce their impact on daily functioning. Determining which approach or combination of approaches will be most helpful is part of the collaborative process - Jennifer works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and the pace that feels right, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Jennifer is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy lives, connect from different locations, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
