She also supports people working on self-love and identity issues, including LGBT concerns. Jennifer uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs. She draws on client-centered methods to keep the conversation focused on the person.

04Online support
Approaches that translate to online care
Jennifer draws on client-centered work to make sessions feel personal and focused on your priorities. That approach centers on listening, reflecting what matters to you, and shaping the conversation around your goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving emotional regulation in day-to-day life.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jennifer will work with each person to choose or combine techniques based on current concerns, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative effort - goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection, and scheduling convenience. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping therapy focused and practical.
