How Jenny works
Her background includes work as a case manager, time in a children’s residential care setting, and work at an intensive outpatient substance abuse program.

She often draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness-based ideas. Those approaches are used to address mood challenges, anxiety, substance concerns, trauma, and self-esteem struggles among other issues. She also focuses on areas such as chronic pain and illness, codependency, obsessive and compulsive behaviors, grief, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue.
Jenny emphasizes respect for differences and has experience supporting people from diverse cultures and the LGBTQ+ community. Her style is down-to-earth and collaborative.

Online support options
Practical therapies that fit into daily life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's needs and priorities, with the therapist listening closely and helping people use their own strengths to solve problems. This approach is useful for anyone needing support to make decisions, build confidence, or cope with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, often through emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness techniques.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and the issues at hand. That plan can change over time as needs evolve.
Online therapy makes these approaches more accessible. Video calls let people have longer, face-to-face conversations and work through skills together. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or be used when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, homework prompts, or ongoing support between sessions. These options offer flexibility so therapy can be scheduled around work, caregiving, or medical needs.
