How her approaches guide online therapy
Jennifer uses client-centered work to keep conversations focused on the person’s concerns and goals. That approach emphasizes listening, reflective feedback, and tailoring each session to what matters most to the client, which helps when adapting therapy to everyday life.She also draws on cognitive-behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood and behavior. CBT provides simple, step-by-step techniques such as tracking thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression.
Dialectical behavior therapy ideas are used when emotions feel overwhelming. These include skills for managing intense feelings, improving emotional regulation, and building healthy coping routines for stress and anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose and adjust methods based on needs, goals, and what feels most useful. That means trying tools, checking progress, and changing course when something isn’t helpful.
