Thank you for your interest and congratulations in taking the first steps in reaching your goals and making the changes you want to make!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in the states of Georgia and Washington and live in GA so I am in the EDT timezone. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, work related stress, parenting challenges, ADHD, and Autism.
I believe that counseling can provide education, support and a plan for the direction you would like to go. Therapy is a safe place where you can explore many emotions, fears and patterns of behavior that are preventing you from healing yourself and living a life where you are content and at peace. Any answers you need about how to live the life that is going to bring you fulfillment, joy and peace, are within you. Healing requires action. You can heal yourself with some bold and decisive moves. Counseling can provide a plan of action. If you are dealing with life transitions, stress, depression or anxiety, it is time to get real with yourself and deal with anything that isn't serving you. Commit to feeding thoughts, words and actions that are going to lead to joy and growth.
My approach is primarily Cognitive Behavioral. This simply means that as we discuss what brings you to therapy I may focus on the two things. First the cognitive piece: what are you thinking or what are thoughts/beliefs that you have that aren't working for you and how do we change those. Then, the behavioral piece: what are things you keep doing that's not working for you and how do we change those. I am a support person for you as you determine what your goals are and we develop a plan on how to get there.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She is wonderful. As a primary care doctor who sees a lot of mental health she is one of the best therapists I’ve come in contact with
Dr. McGee is always thoughtful, caring, and open minded during sessions. She is deeply empathetic and always brings confidence and expertise to the table.
Jennifer has helped me structure my thoughts, and asked new questions I need to answer that can help me getting where I want to be. She has provided tremendous support during this pandemic, and facilitated - with her own wisdom and kindness - in bringing clarity and relief in some areas of my life. I would greatly recommend her.
Dr. McGee is the first person who I've felt has significantly helped me reach my therapy goals. She has given me both the feedback I needed in the moment and the tools necessary to make positive changes in everyday life. Thank you!!
Dr McGee is very effective in her style of therapy and i am able to apply the techniques to improve my health
I have been working with Dr. McGee since March 2019. She has helped me significantly with my anxiety and depression. Dr. McGee has given great resources, advice and has been an empathetic listener always. I feel as if I have been given many tools to create a more peaceful life for myself. Thank you!
Professional and EXTREMELY well informed. Happy to find Dr. McGee after many years in therapy limbo.
Dr. McGee is a great therapist. I especially appreciate her flexibility with meeting times. She is willing to work with me to figure out what my issues are and is patient. She has a lot of experience and is able to relate to me in many ways to help me through.
Dr. McGee knows what I need to hear when I need to hear it. She offers compassionate nonjudgmental advice, and is helping me through a very difficult time in my life.
Dr. McGee has been incredible in my healing. In just the 2 weeks I've been working with her we've revealed several underlying issues that I would never have discovered on my own. She is compassionate and caring, yet tough. Which is exactly what I need. Love working with her!
She is amazing! Very understanding and does not coddle or baby you in anyways shape or form! Highly recommend!
Love her! She is helping me through the ups and downs of parenting a special needs child and helping me reconfigure the way I look at myself! Highly recommend for mamas!

Dr. McGee is amazing. She is empathetic and knowledgeable. She is supportive without coddling.
