More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 3 State: Missouri

Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker in Missouri and Illinois. I have worked in a variety of settings including residential, medical and private case management. While in those settings, I have worked with clients who were experiencing a wide range of concerns from depression, anxiety and panic disorders, substance abuse, physical and emotional abuse, domestic violence, families navigating difficult dynamics within the home, parental concerns re: to children who are diagnosed with emotional or behavioral issues, to families coping with aging parents and medical decisions.

My approach to therapy is to work specifically with you to determine a treatment plan that best fits your unique needs and situation. It is a huge step to start this process and my hope for you is to find a safe and caring environment that supports you on your wellness journey.

I look forward to meeting you!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I was very up in the air about doing on line counseling until I meet my therapist Jennifer. She has helped me out so much. She listens. She responds to my messages in a timely manner. She’s great at her job and you can tell that she loves what she does. I’m thankful that I started this journey to healing and I couldn’t ask for a better therapist.

Feb 27, 2023

Overall

They just had me do a survey of how I liked Jennifer as a therapist and I didn’t think it showed how strongly I felt about this . I was not a believer of therapy at first but since the very first day she has changed my mind on that . I would recommend her to anyone and as a matter of fact I have sent my sister a week of therapy and recommended her . I’m just saying that she is really quite good at this job and you can tell she really cares . That and she has a wonderful tendency to message me just when I am needing to talk to someone . I appreciate that a bunch . Sincerely Christopher Martyn , a loyal and current subscriber.

I have been working with Jennifer for at least six months now after being with another therapist for awhile. She is great. I genuinely feel like I have a friend in her. She responds very timely and checks in often. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Jan 13, 2023

Overall

Jennifer has been amazing at helping me overcome a traumatic event in my life. She listens to what I have to say, and then always gives such insightful feedback and just the right amount of pushback to help me understand where I'm at. She has been great at providing resources for me to utilize throughout the week outside of my therapy session with her. I still have a lot to work through, which can feel so daunting at times, but I feel so much more empowered, safe, and comfortable getting through it knowing that I have weekly sessions with Jennifer to help.

Jan 03, 2023

I find Jennifer to be extremely intuitive and well versed in her knowledge. I’m excited to continue my journey of healing with her!

Overall

I think Jennifer is great. She really helps me see things from a side that may not be seen and it feels like she cares and really helps me focus on getting better and getting the help I need. Everyone is different and everyone learns differently. She is great when it comes to focus on things I need to focus on and questions asked so she can really get to the root of my anxiety.
