Jennie Kozlik, LISW

Jennie Kozlik is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She draws on ten years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship concerns, and self-esteem struggles. Jennie writes in plain language and aims to make therapy feel understandable and doable.

Her background includes work in inpatient hospital settings and community mental health agencies. She also has a Master of Social Science Administration from Case Western Reserve University and a Bachelor of Social Work from Youngstown State University. Those roles exposed her to a wide range of needs and ages and shaped how she supports people in real-world situations.

Jennie uses commonly practiced evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts methods to each person's situation. Sessions focus on building coping skills, strengthening resilience, and naming practical steps clients can try between meetings. The approach is collaborative rather than prescriptive, with goals set together.

She has experience addressing issues related to abandonment, attachment, caregiving stress, body image, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication and control issues, and concerns arising from adoption and foster care. She also notes experience with BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture topics and aging and geriatric issues.

Jennie offers services from Ohio and conducts sessions in English. She asks people to select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability to begin the process.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Jennie works from a person-centered framework and adapts evidence-based techniques to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete strategies to manage symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages people to clarify values and commit to small, meaningful actions even when feelings are uncomfortable, which can help with chronic illness and ongoing mood challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie partners with each person to review what is and isn’t working, then adjusts methods to match goals, lifestyle, and preferences. That process includes setting small goals and practicing skills between sessions so progress is measurable.

The biography lists Video Telehealth as a way she connects with clients, so confirm current session options before booking if you need a specific format. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full office visit isn’t practical. They also let people maintain continuity of care if they are managing chronic health concerns or have difficulty leaving home.
