About Jennifer
Jennifer “Jenni” Mayes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience. She practices in Texas and welcomes people who are ready to start talking through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, addiction concerns, self-esteem challenges, and career questions.
Jenni aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can share what they are thinking and feeling. She values clear listening and practical steps. Her goal is that clients leave sessions feeling more empowered and with tools they can use between meetings.
Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns tied to family history and relationships, such as abandonment, family of origin issues, blended family challenges, and fatherhood topics. She also supports people facing codependency, commitment and communication problems, and difficulties with control or emptiness.
Jenni uses Client-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. That means she centers each conversation on the person in front of her and helps identify small, concrete changes that move them toward their goals.
She is familiar with substance use and hoarding concerns, as well as co-occurring conditions that complicate recovery. Sessions are meant to build coping skills and clearer next steps, not quick fixes. If you feel ready to begin, she invites you to take the first step toward better days.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the person and following their lead. In practice that means the therapist reflects what is said, asks clarifying questions, and helps people feel heard so they can make sense of their own feelings and choices. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, doable changes and practical steps that move someone toward a clearer goal. It often centers on what is already working and builds from there.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped before, then adjust the balance of listening and goal-setting to match those needs. The plan can change as progress is made and as priorities shift.
If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also allow people to schedule sessions around work or caregiving demands and to continue care when routines change.
