About Jennie

Jennie Young is an Alabama licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage anxiety, stress, addiction concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and the strain that comes from big life changes. Jennie focuses on creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they need to say and feel heard. She encourages small, practical steps so progress feels possible.

Over two decades she has worked with people facing relationship challenges and parenting strain, as well as those coping with depression and compassion fatigue. Her work also covers aging and caregiver stress, end-of-life concerns, and feelings of isolation and loneliness. She pays attention to how daily routines and small interactions affect mood and behavior.

Jennie uses Client-Centered Therapy to build an honest, respectful working relationship. That approach prioritizes the person’s own experience and pace. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors to see what changes.

Sessions focus on real-world problems. Conversations include identifying what feels most urgent and trying practical options between meetings. Jennie supports people working through panic, phobias, process addictions, seasonal mood shifts, guilt, and forgiveness concerns.

She aims to make beginning therapy straightforward. Jennie acknowledges how hard starting can feel and aims to match care to each person’s needs and goals.

How Jennie integrates client-centered care and CBT online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and letting the person set the pace and topics. This approach is helpful for people who need a respectful space to sort through feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short, focused exercises to test new ways of thinking and small behavioral steps to reduce anxiety, panic, or depressive patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie works with each person to decide whether a client-centered stance, targeted CBT exercises, or a mix of both fits best for their goals. She checks in and adjusts methods based on what helps most.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone receive care from their Alabama-based licensed professional while keeping sessions manageable alongside family, work, or caregiving responsibilities.
