About Jennifer
Jennifer Maguire is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with 25 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem issues, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related challenges.
Jennifer uses a client-centered approach that treats each person as the expert on their life. Sessions are interactive and practical. She listens first, then helps people identify what they want to change and which small steps might make a difference.
She draws on several evidence-based methods to guide that work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot and shift unhelpful thoughts that drive actions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supports learning concrete skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy also inform her practice when they fit a client's needs. These approaches tend to focus on values, committed action, and how early relationships affect current patterns.
Jennifer frames therapy around strengths and problem-solving. She assists people in developing clear, practical plans and building the skills needed to handle intense feelings, reduce conflict, or manage cravings. Starting with what matters most to the client guides the pace and focus of sessions.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Jennifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and then testing new ways of thinking to reduce distress. DBT teaches practical skills like mindfulness, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to manage intense emotions and improve relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying a method, adjusting it, and keeping what helps most rather than committing to one path up front.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Jennifer uses her clinical approaches to structure sessions so practical skills and behavior changes are easy to practice between meetings.
