About Jennifer
Jennifer Pariera is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Washington who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and relationship concerns. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, bipolar mood symptoms, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is warm and collaborative and aimed at practical change.
With 11 years of experience, she draws on straightforward, evidence-informed techniques to help people manage symptoms and get back to daily life.
How Jennifer works
Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, like managing panic, reducing worry, or improving communication. She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and acceptance-based tools to match each person’s needs. Her style is client-centered and nonjudgmental.
She works alongside people rather than telling them what to do. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change, and narrative methods can help reframe painful stories. Jennifer has worked with adults facing life transitions, caregiver stress, body image and attachment concerns, and issues connected to veteran and armed forces experiences.
She also focuses on women’s issues, loneliness, and self-esteem challenges. Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes regular check-ins easier to fit into busy days. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works with the clinician’s availability.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It can help people stuck in avoidance or struggling with major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that lower reactivity and improve coping with stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and daily life. Sessions often combine approaches so people get both skill practice and space to reflect on what matters to them.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to keep therapy consistent. Video enables face-to-face conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to schedule during a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick skill prompts, or when typing feels more comfortable than speaking. These options give flexibility so people can make steady progress around other commitments.
