She uses straightforward methods to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, or struggles with mood and attention.

Jennifer favors approaches that lead to clear steps and small changes. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior.
Background and approach
She also uses Motivational Interviewing to build motivation for change when people feel stuck. These methods are paired with direct conversation and goal-focused work. In sessions she helps people tackle parenting strain, relationship conflict, grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and bipolar concerns.
She draws on everyday examples and short exercises so ideas are easy to try between sessions. The pace is adjusted to what each person needs. Jennifer trained in mental health at the master's level and began practicing after graduate school.
Over the years she has continued learning through seminars and professional development. Her background in education and psychology informs a patient, explanatory style that many people find grounding. Outside of work she lives with her family in upstate New York and enjoys the outdoors, cooking, baking, and CrossFit.
She speaks from personal experience of working through anxiety and depression and aims to offer a supportive space for practical change.
How CBT and Motivational Interviewing work online
Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and practice small behavior changes. CBT sessions often include simple homework and short exercises that can be done between appointments to build new habits and reduce symptoms.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change when they feel stuck. That approach focuses on drawing out a person’s goals and strengthening commitment through respectful conversation rather than pressure.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then recommend a way of working that fits. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helping and what feels manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
