Licensed in Illinois as an LCPC and in Iowa as an LMHC, Jenifer has worked across residential, inpatient, outpatient, and community mental health settings since 2000. Her background in counseling and psychology informs a flexible approach that blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered and trauma-informed techniques.

Approaches and Accessibility of Online Therapy



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and replacing them with more adaptive skills; it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and unconditional positive regard, creating space for clients to explore feelings and values at their own pace. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe the stories they tell about their lives, separating identity from problems to open possibilities for change and meaning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be explored collaboratively. The therapist works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may blend techniques to create a personalized plan that emphasizes strengths and achievable steps.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to continue care from different locations. These formats support ongoing skill practice and timely check-ins, while allowing licensed professionals to tailor interaction styles to what works best for each client.
