Jennifer Bassett, LMFT

Jennifer Bassett is a Florida-licensed licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with ten years of counseling experience. She is a military veteran who supports people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, and major life changes. Jennifer focuses on practical steps clients can use right away to feel steadier and more in control.

Her approach starts from the belief that each person knows their own story and strengths. Sessions are collaborative and respectful, with the therapist listening first to understand what matters most. Jennifer blends conversation, goal-setting, and skills practice so people can try small changes between meetings.

She brings experience from family support and professional counseling settings, including work related to the family dependency legal system. That background informs how she helps people navigate complex family dynamics and young adult concerns without assuming a single solution.

Jennifer uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, and the Gottman Method. Those approaches shape how she helps with communication problems, codependency, addictions, self-esteem, and coping with grief or stress.

People often come for help with anxiety, depression, substance use, career questions, parenting strain, or questions about identity and intimacy. Jennifer aims to make therapy understandable and doable, focusing on what will make life feel more manageable day to day.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy puts the client's perspective at the center of sessions, with the therapist following the person's lead and focusing on empathy and understanding; this helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to clarify their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors together and teaches practical tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. The Gottman Method focuses on communication and interaction patterns in relationships and is useful for people wanting to improve trust, conflict management, and emotional connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose or blend methods based on their goals, values, and how they respond to different strategies. That means plans can shift as people learn what helps them most.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make scheduling around work or school simpler. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for timing, session length, and how to practice new skills between meetings.
