Jennifer Sagle , LPCC, LMHC

Jennifer Sagle is a licensed professional counselor and mental health counselor with 26 years of practice experience. She holds an LPCC and an LMHC and is based in Ohio. Jennifer focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues common to women. She trained in psychology and counseling and has worked with a wide range of concerns over her career. Sessions are practical and focused on the problem at hand. Jennifer listens closely, offers straightforward feedback, and helps people build skills they can use outside sessions. Her approach borrows from cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment strategies, and client-centered work. She also uses emotionally focused ideas and mindfulness tools when they fit a person's needs. The mix is chosen to match each person’s goals rather than as a fixed protocol. Jennifer helps people with body image, eating-related struggles, sleep problems, career stress, and coping with life transitions. She also supports those facing trauma, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar challenges, and first responder stress. Her work often addresses attachment, codependency, and communication difficulties. People who prefer clear guidance and skill-building tend to do well with her style. She aims to be a steady, pragmatic presence - someone who notices what the client cannot see and offers useful ways forward. To begin, readers complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and for making life changes when emotions feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors; it is often chosen for anxiety, low mood, anger, and sleep or eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience at the center and uses empathic listening and reflection to help clarify goals and build self-trust.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, so therapy feels collaborative rather than prescriptive.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions work well for deeper conversations where seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or during a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, coping tools between sessions, or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into different routines and schedules.
