About Jennifer

Dr. Jennifer McGee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 12 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or big life changes. She also works with clients facing parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, ADHD, grief, relationship and career concerns, and a range of mood and trauma-related issues.

Her style is straightforward. She talks with people about what they think and what they do, then helps them try small practical changes. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps that can be used between meetings. She frames therapy as teamwork and offers practical tools alongside conversation.

Dr. McGee uses cognitive behavioral approaches alongside mindfulness and solution-focused ideas. She often looks at unhelpful thoughts, then pairs those insights with doable behavioral changes. Narrative therapy is used when reframing personal stories can reduce shame or improve self-esteem.

People who prefer a direct, goal-oriented approach tend to fit well with her. She encourages decisive steps and regular check-ins on progress. The work can include skills practice, problem-solving, and planning for real-world situations.

Sessions are offered in English and are provided through online formats including video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Dr. McGee describes counseling as a place to learn, plan, and take action toward a more satisfying life.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Dr. McGee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help clients make concrete changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts and actions and helps people try different thinking and doing to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve everyday coping.

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, achievable goals and Narrative Therapy when shifting the story a person tells about themselves can reduce shame or increase agency. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together; she will collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs, goals, and preferences and adjust methods as progress is tracked.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for short updates, between-session coaching, or quick skill reminders. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on progress and usable strategies.
