Jennifer Bassett , LMFT

Jennifer Bassett is a Florida-based licensed marriage and family therapist with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and parenting strains, and concerns tied to women's issues. She approaches care with straightforward support and respect for each person's story.

She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow what matters most to the client. That means listening first and building therapy around each person's goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try practical steps that change mood and behavior.

Her background includes work supporting service members and people connected to the military community, and experience assisting people navigating family dependency systems. Jennifer also has a history of helping teenagers in middle and high school with school and family challenges.

In sessions she focuses on clear, doable steps and honest conversation. She helps with communication problems, codependency, grief, midlife questions, career shifts, and intimacy-related struggles. Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach when people want help with substance use and behavior change.

Jennifer aims to build a therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard and can try new ways of coping. She encourages small, realistic changes and checks in about what is working. The result is a practical, person-centered approach that treats each person as the expert on their own life.

How her approaches fit online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping clients set their own goals; online sessions use that same approach so conversations start with what matters most to you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes, which can be guided through video or messaging with homework between sessions. The Gottman Method offers tools for improving communication and conflict skills that translate well to video work when partners or individuals want to practice new ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation happens early and can shift as progress is made so the plan stays useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper, face-to-face conversation and practicing communication skills. Phone sessions can fit a shorter check-in or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging let people keep momentum between sessions or check in quickly when they need brief support. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
