About Jenifer

She holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential and brings ten years of clinical experience. Her style is direct and focused on skills people can use day to day.
She aims to help clients make small, steady changes that improve daily life. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and shift patterns that keep problems going.
How Jenifer works
Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy are used to help people relate differently to difficult emotions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are included when people need support with intense feelings and emotion regulation. Her background includes crisis intervention, work in correctional settings, and roles in community mental health.
She has provided counseling in independent practice and worked with people connected to intellectual disability services. Those roles shaped a practical, solution-minded approach to therapy. Sessions focus on goals each person brings, and on teaching tools that fit everyday life.
She talks through coping skills, communication strategies, and ways to manage sleep, anger, or career stress. For parenting concerns she helps parents handle strain and navigate blended family issues. Jenifer practices in Missouri and conducts sessions in English.
She uses varied formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging so people can choose what fits their schedule and needs.

Online support options
Approach and online options for practical change
Jenifer combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that fit online work. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people learn practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and accepting hard feelings while taking steps toward a meaningful life. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice stress and reduce reactivity during daily routines.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on skills, mindfulness practice, or values-based action and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for full conversations and working through exercises, phone can be a lower-bandwidth option, and live chat or messaging suits quick check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, or other daily demands, while keeping the same therapeutic approaches at the center of care.
