About Jennifer
She earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Houston-Clear Lake. She also holds a Master of Public Administration and a Bachelor of Journalism and Public Communications from the University of Alaska-Anchorage. These degrees inform a blend of clinical insight and practical problem solving.
Jennifer has worked with a wide range of ages, from elementary-aged children through adults, and has experience in crisis counseling, public agencies, and private practice. That variety has shaped an adaptable approach that fits different life stages and situations. She often brings mindfulness tools into sessions when clients are open to them.
Her clinical approaches include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, existential ideas about meaning, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing for trauma processing. In practice she helps people build new coping skills, change unhelpful patterns, and strengthen relationships with themselves and others.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. Jennifer aims for clients to leave sessions with concrete steps they can try between meetings, and to develop greater self-compassion over time.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own experience and priorities, giving space for people to set the pace and goals. It helps when someone wants a trusting, supportive place to be heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, emphasizes practical steps to change thinking patterns and behaviors that maintain stress and anxiety. It often includes homework tasks to practice new skills between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills. These strategies can be useful for intense emotions and recurring relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals and preferences. That may mean trying a few techniques to see what fits best.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which online options are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins between other obligations. Licensed professionals can guide which session style will best support your goals.
