About Jennifer

Jennifer Such is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and life transitions. She works with adults on practical steps to feel steadier and more in control. Her approach is warm, direct, and focused on what helps right now.

In sessions she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take small actions toward them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is available for processing distressing memories when trauma is a key concern.

She also uses Client-Centered techniques to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly about difficult topics like grief, intimacy concerns, parenting strain, or workplace stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are taught for emotional regulation and crisis coping. The aim is to build tools you can use between sessions.

Jennifer has worked across multiple settings with adults who struggle with mood disorders, addiction, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her experience includes helping people manage recurring worry, insomnia, relationship challenges, and grief. She pays attention to how life context - such as caregiving or chronic illness - affects daily coping.

People who meet with her can expect a collaborative plan that mixes short-term skills and longer-term personal growth. She helps clients set small goals, practice new skills, and track progress so therapy feels practical and relevant.

Approaches that fit online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when feelings are strong. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce depression and worry. It often includes practical exercises between sessions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used to process distressing memories; when trauma is central, it can help reduce the intensity of those memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process can include mixing approaches - for example practicing CBT skills while using ACT to clarify values - so the plan fits your needs.

Online formats offer flexibility for many people. Video calls let you use visual cues and work through exercises in real time. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support frequent check-ins, short reflections, and reminders of skills learned in sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
