About Jennifer
Her approach mixes several well-known therapies to meet each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small, meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify thinking patterns that feed anxiety or low mood and to build different habits. When trauma is central, she incorporates EMDR techniques alongside skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation.
Jennifer has worked with people facing grief, relationship strain, parenting stresses, compassion fatigue, chronic pain and illness, and the impacts of major life transitions. She also supports those navigating identity issues within LGBT contexts and addresses concerns like ADHD and sleep disruption. Her background includes practice in multiple clinical settings with adolescents and adults.
Sessions focus on practical tools and clear goals. Jennifer offers a calm, down-to-earth style and helps clients try new strategies between meetings. Prospective clients in Missouri should confirm current session options before booking and use the platform’s Start Therapy flow to begin the match process.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Jennifer often blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward them while learning to make room for difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they try strategies, review what helps, and adjust the plan so the work fits the person’s life and needs.
Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try tools and homework between meetings and bring examples from everyday life into sessions for immediate feedback.
