How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Jennifer commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and goal oriented, which can help with anger, anxiety, and mood challenges.She also uses attachment-based work to look at how past relationships shape present reactions. That approach can make patterns of trust, closeness, and reactivity easier to understand and address.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jennifer will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That means adjusting techniques over time and checking in about what helps most.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific online options. In general, working with a licensed professional online can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Different formats offer practical choices like less screen time or a quicker phone conversation, so discuss what fits your routine when you schedule.
