About Jennie
Jennie Kozlik is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build strength and self-worth. She describes therapy as a collaborative process and focuses on practical steps clients can use in day-to-day life.
Jennie earned a Master of Social Science Administration from Case Western Reserve University and a bachelor's degree in social work from Youngstown State University. Her earlier work includes roles in inpatient hospital settings and community mental health agencies, which exposed her to a wide range of needs and challenges.
How Jennie works
In sessions she adapts approaches to fit each person rather than using a single fixed method. She commonly integrates cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, and acceptance and commitment concepts depending on what will help most. The aim is to teach skills for managing stress, anxiety, mood swings, and low self-esteem.
Jennie also addresses concerns such as bipolar disorder, depression, relationship problems, body image, codependency, attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and issues related to adoption and foster care. She draws on ten years of clinical experience to match strategies to a person's goals and day-to-day realities. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.
People in Ohio can work with Jennie in English, and she guides each person toward practical tools for coping, clearer communication, and greater resilience.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Jennie often draws on cognitive behavioral ideas that help people identify unhelpful thoughts and then practice different ways of responding. These techniques are useful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into small, changeable steps.She also uses acceptance and commitment concepts that encourage people to notice difficult feelings while committing to values-based actions. That approach can help when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed and wants to move toward a clearer sense of purpose.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and Jennie treats it as a team effort. She will check in about your goals, try strategies that fit your life, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques feel most useful.
Online therapy with Jennie is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text options make it simple to send updates, ask quick questions, or keep momentum between longer sessions. These choices make scheduling and fitting support into a busy life more practical.
