About Jennifer
Jennifer Spinner is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of counseling experience. She uses a warm, down-to-earth style to help people get unstuck and improve day-to-day life. Jennifer speaks English and Spanish and practices from Florida as a LICSW and LCSW.
She focuses on practical changes people can use right away. Sessions often look at how thoughts, habits, and relationships affect stress, anxiety, mood, and self-esteem. Jennifer also addresses trauma, addiction, grief, intimacy concerns, and challenges tied to parenting, career, or major life changes.
How Jennifer works
Her background includes long-term clinical work and independent practice. She names client-centered care as central, beginning from where each person is and building a plan that fits their goals. That plan can mix methods such as cognitive behavioral tools, acceptance strategies, attachment work, and skills training when needed.
Jennifer emphasizes clear listening and steady support. She helps people sort priorities, practice new ways of coping, and rehearse different responses to conflict and stress. Sessions balance validation with straightforward steps to try between appointments.
People who want coaching-style guidance as well as talk therapy may find her approach useful. Jennifer does not provide letters for medical, work, school, or legal purposes. Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Online support options
Practical approaches for online therapy and coping
Jennifer uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on values and small committed actions that move someone toward the life they want, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT gives short, actionable exercises to reduce panic, improve sleep, and change behaviors that feed depression or anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, adjusting as needed over time. This helps people try different tools and keep what works for them.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a work break or low-bandwidth situation, and chat or messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing coaching-style contact. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between sessions.
