About Jenna
Jenna Lopez welcomes people who are ready to make their wellbeing a priority and seek practical, compassionate support. She brings 15 years of social work experience to her practice and emphasizes a nonjudgmental, strengths-based stance that centers each person's knowledge of their own life.
Background and approach
Jenna frames therapy as a collaborative process where clients' goals guide the work and her role is to offer tools, resources, and steady support. Trained and licensed as an LICSW and LIMHP, Jenna has focused much of her career on trauma, major mental health concerns, and issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity.
She blends client-centered methods with action-oriented planning, helping people translate insight into concrete steps and connection to community resources. Her approach integrates techniques from cognitive behavioral, attachment-based, dialectical behavior, and mindfulness therapies to address stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy challenges, addictions, ADHD, and a wide range of life transitions.
Known for a warm, compassionate style, she aims to create a space where honesty is safe and healing can begin. Jenna supports clients in processing painful emotions, reducing shame, and building practical strategies to move toward the life they want.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Jenna often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers structured tools to create measurable change.She also uses attachment-based techniques to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy and trust, which can be useful for addressing relationship problems, attachment issues, and healing from trauma. In addition, her client-centered stance prioritizes the client's perspective and encourages collaborative goal setting so therapy reflects each person's values and priorities.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jenna works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She emphasizes collaboration in tailoring strategies, combining evidence-based practices and practical action plans as appropriate.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home or work, and fit therapy into busy lives while working toward meaningful change.
