More about Jennie
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a decade of experience supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. My work integrates evidence-based modalities—especially Dialectical Behavior Therapy—with a holistic, trauma-informed perspective that honors the emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of healing. Alongside traditional therapeutic approaches, I incorporate gentle mind-body practices such as sound therapy techniques and individualized suggestions for supportive herbal remedies when appropriate. Clients describe my style as grounded, direct, and deeply compassionate, with a focus on emotional regulation, clarity, and long-term resilience. I am especially passionate about serving military-connected individuals, trauma survivors, and those ready to break long-standing patterns and reconnect with their authentic self.

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.
