About Jennifer

Jennifer “Jenni” Mayes is a licensed clinical social worker with 18 years of experience. She is licensed in Texas and brings a calm, encouraging presence to sessions. Jenni aims to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety take the first step toward feeling better.

Jenni builds an open space where clients can speak freely. She focuses on listening first, then helping people notice what works and what gets in the way. The goal is practical change - small steps that make daily life easier.

Her approach centers on the person in front of her. Jenni uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities and pace. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify clear goals and practical strategies for the next steps.

She often helps people dealing with relationship strain, career stress, low self-esteem, and substance concerns. Additional areas of focus include abandonment, blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and hoarding. Sessions aim to leave clients with tools they can use between appointments.

Jenni works from Texas and conducts sessions in English. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin. This helps match goals and schedule a first appointment.

How Jenni’s approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the person's experience and following their priorities. It supports people who need a caring, responsive space to sort through stress, relationship worries, and self-doubt. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on goals and short-term steps. It can help when someone wants clear, practical strategies to manage anxiety, reduce cravings, or improve communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each client to pick methods that match their needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as goals change. That shared process helps people stay engaged and make usable progress between sessions.

Check the session options before booking to confirm how sessions are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, avoid travel time, and keep momentum with shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing pacing and homework tasks in an online session can help clients apply new tools to everyday life without promising a specific format.
