Background and approach
Jennifer works with people on attachment and abandonment issues as well as problems that come from family of origin and communication struggles. Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical steps, skill-building, and honest conversation rather than vague reassurance.

Jennifer blends approaches such as client-centered listening, attachment-based exploration, and tools from DBT and EMDR when appropriate. She aims to help people make real changes by combining insight with concrete habits and coping skills.
Clients can expect direct feedback, clear goals, and accountability. She encourages steady progress and addresses difficult topics without judgment. For people ready to put in the work, Jennifer offers a focused, no-nonsense approach to recovery and growth.
How Jennifer’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early relationships shape current patterns. It focuses on building safety in the therapeutic relationship and addressing trust, abandonment, or connection struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that can help process distressing memories by combining focused recall with specific bilateral stimulation when appropriate.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jennifer will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest methods that fit those needs. She aims to make decisions collaboratively so treatment feels purposeful and manageable for each person.
Online therapy with her uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for in-depth sessions and skill practice, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging can support brief updates or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments, work through treatment plans, and apply new skills in everyday life.
