Jennifer Brown , LICSW

Jennifer Brown is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Massachusetts with 10 years of clinical experience. She earned a master's degree from Columbia University and began her career working in psychiatric emergency rooms and inpatient psychiatric units before transitioning to outpatient care, where she has provided therapy for nine years.

Jennifer helps individuals, couples, and families navigate a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and co-parenting challenges, eating and impulse-related concerns, bipolar mood presentations, and ADHD. She also provides focused support around adoption and foster care, attachment issues, communication problems, domestic violence, infidelity, veteran and armed forces issues, panic and social anxiety, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, and women's issues.

Her clinical style is integrative and tailored to each person or family. Jennifer commonly draws from attachment-based work, client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques to meet clients where they are. She places particular emphasis on communication - helping people shift how they interact with one another in ways that can change relationship dynamics. Jennifer views therapy as a collaborative process and offers an outside, unbiased perspective intended to foster insight, healthier patterns, and practical skills for coping and connection.

Approaches that Guide Online Therapy

Jennifer integrates attachment-based work into online sessions to explore how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps clients and couples understand attachment needs, repair ruptures, and build more secure connections. She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and collaborative reflection, offering a space where a person’s values and goals guide the pace and focus of treatment. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is another frequent component, providing practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors often present in anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jennifer works collaboratively with each person or couple to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Jennifer is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from various locations, accommodate busy lives, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult, while allowing therapists to tailor interventions to each client’s circumstances.
