About Jennifer
Jennifer Wikette brings a practical, person-centered approach to counseling. She is a LISW and a LICSW with 26 years of experience in social services. Jennifer speaks plainly and focuses on what matters to families and individuals juggling stress and heavy emotions.
She uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts, make values-based choices, and build healthier habits. Motivational Interviewing supports change by tapping into a person's own reasons for doing things differently.
How Jennifer works
Sessions tend to be focused and down-to-earth, with clear steps to try between meetings. Jennifer has a long history of helping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and relationship challenges. She also supports people working through grief, anger, addiction, and depression.
Additional areas she addresses include communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Her background includes work with both adults and children across community and social service settings. That experience shapes a practical style that balances skills practice with personal reflection.
Jennifer aims to meet people where they are and help them build on strengths they already have. Therapy sessions include discussion, skill coaching, and small experiments to try between meetings. She works from Ohio and conducts sessions in English.
The focus is on helping people manage current challenges and move toward clearer choices and better daily routines.

Online support options
How ACT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and decisions about parenting or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It is practical for managing anxiety, depression, anger, and building coping skills for daily life.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons for change and shortens the gap between wanting to change and taking action. It pairs well with CBT and ACT when motivation is low or habits are hard to shift.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will explore goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try techniques together. This collaborative process means methods can be adapted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skill demonstrations, phone sessions can fit into a break or require less bandwidth, and chat or text can be used for quick check-ins or brief coaching. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to use the formats that suit a person's schedule and comfort.
