Jennifer is amazing. She listens to my rambling concerns and challenges and offers really great insight to help me reframe and better understand issues I’m dealing with. She makes me feel seen and heard. I don’t always show up to calls with her with an agenda but she makes herself available to listen to anything I bring up. And not only that, she engages in a meaningful way and teaches me many skills I can take to all my life relationships. My personal growth has been immeasurable since seeing Jennifer, and how I see myself in the world has shifted for the better. Cannot recommend her enough!
More about Jennifer
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, in the state of Tennessee with over 10 years of experience working as a mental health therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns and mental health diagnoses such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, motivational issues, trauma, childhood trauma, codependency, ADHD, somatic symptoms, and much more. I have received specialized training in the treatment of PTSD utilizing Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have provided counseling services in both individual and group therapy context.
My counseling style is warm, conversational, and interactive. I utilize both my clinical listening skills and my intuitive nature to listen deeply enough to hear the "why" and deeper feelings that lay hidden behind the symptoms or concerns you present. I believe in treating my clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Although I do believe that mental health diagnosis is helpful and meaningful, I also seek to help my clients understand and celebrate their own unique strengths and weaknesses, personality traits, and preferences. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, rational-emotive counseling, and experiential therapy techniques. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage and strength to seek support in the midst of life's challenges and valleys. I feel honored to support you as you search for a more fulfilling and happier life. I hope you will find a safe place to process and explore your inner world, and support as you take steps towards the solutions that will bring you greater peace and joy.
I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Jennifer is attentive, responsive, thoughtful, and kind. She clearly cares, and wants the best for her clients. I can tell she is rooting for me. She is always willing to talk through things, or to let me talk them through, and she is also able to work with me on certain long-standing issues. I really appreciate her.
Jennifer is thoughtful and understanding, and always easy to talk to. She helps me work through problems, big and small!
Jennifer is kind, thoughtful, nonjudgmental, and easy to talk to.
My time with Jennifer has been transformational. I had been in therapy a few times, but very briefly, and right from our first few sessions so much shifted for me. Even my friends commented that "therapy was definitely working" for me because I have been able to show up differently for myself and in the world.
My first month with Jennifer has given me so much perspective, awareness and hope. After each session I feel empowered and more knowledgeable about who I am, and who I can become. Jennifer asks insightful questions and offers perspectives and tools that I reflect on and take into my daily life. I’m so grateful to have found her.
