Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Jennifer frequently draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing to help people make practical changes and build healthier patterns. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective alternatives - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Motivational interviewing focuses on exploring a person's own reasons for change and strengthening motivation, which can be especially helpful for addictions, ambivalence about change, and lifestyle shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jennifer works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, values, and preferences. She tailors interventions based on each person's needs and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect with licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, and mobility needs, and they support consistent access to therapy from different locations.
