Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma-Focused Therapy to guide her online work. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress or low mood and teaches practical strategies to shift those patterns; it can be helpful for anxiety, depression, panic, and workplace stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and integrating traumatic experiences in a paced, supportive way to reduce the ongoing impact of past harm and improve day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Jennifer treats it as a collaborative effort. She will work with each client to explore goals, preferences, and the specific challenges they bring, adapting methods over time to find what feels most effective for that person.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, connect from different locations, and maintain continuity of care, while enabling therapists to use structured techniques, present materials, and support skill practice between sessions.
