About Jennifer
Jennifer Reeder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Maine. She uses a client-centered way of working to help people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next. Jennifer focuses on practical steps and compassionate listening to help people move forward.
She blends client-centered therapy with skills from dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness. That combination helps when stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma make everyday life harder.
How Jennifer works
Sessions often include simple tools to manage strong emotions and to improve coping in the moment. Jennifer also applies motivational interviewing and narrative therapy when useful. These approaches help people clarify goals, find motivation for change, and reframe painful stories about themselves.
She aims to make progress feel manageable rather than overwhelming. Her background includes three years of clinical experience working with a range of concerns such as relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, caregiver stress, workplace problems, and aging or geriatric matters. Jennifer brings attention to how life transitions affect mood and functioning and offers steps to regain a sense of control.
In sessions people can expect straightforward conversation, practical coping strategies, and an emphasis on the next small step. Jennifer supports people coping with ADHD, compassion fatigue, career decisions, and end-of-life concerns. She works in English and provides video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging options for therapy.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what matters most, and helps identify small, achievable steps to feel better. This method can help with stress, low mood, and relationship concerns.Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It teaches practical techniques for coping, distress tolerance, and balancing strong feelings, which can help with anxiety, trauma reactions, and relationship difficulties.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they try different strategies and adjust based on what helps most over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day, and live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and to use therapy tools between sessions.
