Approaches and online options that fit your life

Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety or unhelpful patterns. CBT is practical and often focuses on specific skills for reducing stress and managing cravings.

She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people rewrite the way they think about painful events and relationships. This approach can be useful for processing family of origin issues, guilt, shame, and changes after separation or infidelity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they try methods, track progress, and adjust the plan to find the best fit.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls offer face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when writing helps you think things through. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, and other commitments.
