About Jennie

Jennie Young is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Alabama who brings 20 years of clinical experience to her practice. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Jennie also addresses a broad range of related concerns including caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, relationship and communication problems, divorce and separation, and substance and process addictions. Her approach emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where clients can explore thoughts and feelings openly.

Jennie uses client-centered techniques to build rapport and support, and she incorporates cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. With work on topics such as panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety, seasonal mood changes, and end-of-life or hospice counseling, she tailors interventions to each person’s situation.

Jennie encourages taking the first step toward therapy and works collaboratively to set goals and develop practical skills for coping, healing, and improved daily functioning.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches with Online Flexibility

Jennie draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients examine and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, a practical approach often used for anxiety, panic, phobias, depression, and many stress-related concerns. She also uses client-centered therapy to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported while they explore personal goals and emotions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie works with each person to identify goals, assess what methods resonate, and adjust strategies over time so the therapy fits the client’s needs and preferences rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule regular sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from home and maintain continuity of care while working on practical skills, coping strategies, and emotional processing in ways that suit their daily life.
