About Jennifer
Jennifer Redlin is a licensed mental health counselor who brings nine years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, and issues around self-esteem and identity. Jennifer practices with warmth and straightforward care that helps people feel heard and steady during hard times.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s needs. That can mean focusing on coping skills for anxiety, addressing shame and trauma, or building confidence and clearer self-image.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with space to process feelings and plan steps forward. Jennifer has worked with a wide range of adults from different backgrounds and life stages. Her experience includes helping people with addiction, grief, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns.
She also supports those managing chronic illness, body-image struggles, and the stress of caregiving. Her style is respectful and nonjudgmental. Jennifer aims to create a calm, compassionate atmosphere so people can talk honestly and make changes that fit their lives.
She often combines skill-building with deeper work on past wounds when that helps. Jennifer holds licenses as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and as a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC. She practices from Iowa and works with clients using online formats.
If someone wants clear, steady support for anxiety, trauma, or confidence issues, she focuses on practical steps and steady emotional support.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skill-building and emotional processing. One common approach helps people learn concrete coping skills for anxiety and stress - such as breathing techniques, behavioral experiments, and activity planning - to shorten distress and make daily life easier. Another approach addresses trauma and shame by creating a safe, step-by-step plan to process painful memories and reduce their hold on current feelings and relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before to pick methods that fit each person. Together they will adjust the plan over time so sessions stay practical and relevant to life changes.
Online therapy offers flexibility with multiple ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and skill coaching. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, processing between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep progress moving forward.
