About Jennifer
Jennifer Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience practicing in Kentucky. She works with adults ages 18–99 on common concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and stress. Jennifer also supports people facing relationship and family strains, ADHD, sleep and eating problems, and life transitions.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Early sessions focus on listening, defining what matters to the client, and setting practical goals. She and the client build a plan with coping skills and steps that are realistic for everyday life.
Jennifer draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the client's perspective. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot thinking patterns that fuel anxiety or anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness Therapy add concrete skills for emotion regulation and staying present.
Motivational Interviewing is part of her work when change feels stalled. That helps people sort out their reasons for change and try small, doable steps. Throughout, she emphasizes steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Her background includes clinical training and years of practice with adults managing mood disorders, trauma, grief, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and life upheaval. Jennifer speaks English and accepts international clients. To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and goals. Online sessions using this approach involve open listening and working from what the client brings up, which helps with issues like grief, low self-esteem, and relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In an online setting CBT is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new skills that reduce anxiety, depression, and anger over time.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, provides concrete emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. Delivered online, these tools can help people manage intense emotions, lower reactivity, and build routines that make daily life more manageable.
Choosing the right combination of these methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick approaches that match their goals, preferences, and the kinds of problems they want to address. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting as progress is tracked.
