Jenny Javins , LICSW

Jenny Javins is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and big life changes. She works with individuals facing caregiver strain, postpartum challenges, grief, and issues that often affect women. Her style aims to build practical coping skills and greater self-compassion.

Jenny uses straightforward, collaborative work in sessions. She listens for what matters most and helps people set small, achievable goals. Conversations focus on coping strategies for day-to-day life and steps toward feeling more steady and in control.

With six years of experience, she draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral methods and client-centered care to tailor each plan. That means exploring thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, while also following the person’s own priorities in therapy.

She often helps people dealing with caregiver stress, burnout, and compassion fatigue. She also supports recovery from losses, relationship endings, and the shame or guilt that can follow upsetting events.

Jenny centers work on building self-love and clearer communication. Sessions aim to leave people with concrete skills they can use between meetings and a clearer sense of how to move forward.

Based in West Virginia, she offers multiple online formats to fit different needs. Sessions are conducted in English and arranged through the service’s scheduling process.

Approaches and online care that fit your needs

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and experience, giving them space to guide sessions while the therapist listens and reflects. This approach is useful when someone wants to explore feelings, build self-compassion, and set personal priorities for change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and coping. It involves practical exercises and simple experiments to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and builds motivation in a respectful, nonjudgmental way. It is often paired with other methods to support next steps when someone feels stuck.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily life. This means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is good for face-to-face connection, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
