About Jennifer
She has worked with adolescents and adults in a range of settings, so she is comfortable addressing mood disorders, bipolar symptoms, and challenges that come with major life changes. Her approach blends evidence-based methods with a calm, nonjudgmental presence. Sessions emphasize building skills to handle intense emotions and improving day-to-day functioning.
Jennifer draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach coping tools and change unhelpful patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify values and take manageable steps toward them. For clients with traumatic memories she offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one of the options she may use.
Clients can expect a collaborative process that focuses on what feels most useful to them. Jennifer helps people set concrete, realistic goals and notices progress along the way. She pays attention to stress, relationships, sleep, parenting strain, and work-life balance when those areas are relevant.
Her work includes addressing complicated issues like codependency, attachment concerns, chronic pain and co-morbid conditions. Jenny also supports people coping with grief, compassion fatigue, commitment or control issues, and ADHD-related struggles.
How Jennifer’s approaches work in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful when someone wants to live in a clearer direction despite stress or difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to create practical changes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing mood symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and the reactions they trigger, which can help people who have experienced traumatic events.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try first. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most and what feels manageable.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving because it reduces travel time and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue working with a licensed professional while navigating day-to-day responsibilities, with scheduling chosen to suit each person's routine.
