I am a master level Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Texas with over 34 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide variety of issues including depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, and mood disorders. I have also worked with clients who have experienced physical, sexual, and emotional trauma.
My therapy style is client-centered, interactive, and supportive. I believe that treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion is essential to successful therapy. I will adapt our dialog and treatment plan to meet your needs. My goal is to create a safe environment so that your healing can progress. I use aspects from a variety of therapy styles including Solution Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Psychotherapy, and Trauma Therapy, so you can have a well-rounded path of healing.
It takes courage to start your journey of healing. If you are ready to begin your journey, I am ready to support you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Jennifer is great!
Jennifer is such a great therapist. She always listens and when she can gives me a little extra time to talk in those weeks when it's been particularly hard for me.
Very attentive, forthcoming, and helpful.
Jennifer has been so wonderful for my first time in therapy. She has been beyond helpful by working through my past and current mental health issues. I could not recommend a better therapist!

Best therapist I have ever had. Professional, genuine, kind, unbiased. Love working with her!!
I'm super comfortable for being in therapy for the first time
She is genuinely very caring and has helped me grow more than i every thought I could in a lifetime, in just a little over a month. She is encouraging and validating while also helping me stay grounded. 10/10!
My first therapist and I can say it's been very pleasant. I will come back to her when I can financially support it. I highly recommend Jennifer any day.
My therapist takes a genuine interest and what I say and does her very best to positively deconstruct what I've said and to positively reconstruct my habits 10 out of 10
