About Jenna

Jenna Auxier is an LCSW who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and related concerns. She works with individuals facing depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, career strain, and parenting pressures. Jenna emphasizes practical skills and clear goals to make therapy useful in day-to-day life.

She takes a straightforward, team-based approach. Early sessions focus on getting to know each person and asking questions to understand their situation. Jenna involves clients in creating a treatment plan so goals feel realistic and relevant. She teaches tools to use between sessions and checks progress regularly.

Jenna draws from several approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She uses what fits the person rather than insisting on a single method. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal oriented, with room for addressing trauma or crisis when needed.

With nine years of experience and a Kentucky LCSW credential, Jenna combines practical support with a calm, direct style. She invites questions and makes space for honest conversation. Her focus is on helping people build skills, regain balance, and move toward goals they choose.

People considering therapy are encouraged to begin by sharing current concerns and priorities. Jenna’s work centers on clear steps, coping tools, and ongoing review so clients can notice change and adjust the plan as needed.

How Jenna Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Jenna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when helping people manage stress and anxiety. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping the person guide the work to match their priorities.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people move toward change when ambivalence is present. That approach uses open questions and reflective listening to strengthen a person’s own reasons for change and to set small, achievable steps.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jenna discusses options with each person and tailors the plan to their goals, needs, and preferences. She will check in and adjust methods as progress is reviewed, so the work stays useful and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session formats before booking. Jenna's description does not specify formats here, so check which options are supported and match your needs. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let people use approaches like CBT homework, mindfulness exercises, and motivational coaching without needing an in-person visit.
