Background and approach

Sessions often focus on clear, doable steps to ease symptoms and build confidence. Conversations tend to be collaborative, with the client and therapist deciding together what to try next. Her approach includes client-centered care that prioritizes the person’s perspective and goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to notice and shift patterns of thinking that contribute to anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness practices are offered to help manage stress and increase present-moment awareness. Jenna also uses solution-focused strategies to set short-term goals and track small wins.

She emphasizes hope and resilience, describing change as a process of planting seeds and watching them grow. The tone in sessions is encouraging and practical. People who want straightforward tools, emotional support, and a partner in figuring out next steps may find her style helpful.

Jenna invites anyone ready to try a new approach to scheduling a first appointment and exploring options together.

Online approaches that fit your life

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what comes up, and helps set goals based on what matters most to the client. This approach is useful when someone needs empathy and a space to figure things out.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Sessions teach concrete tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, low mood, and managing stress in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenna will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time in a collaborative way.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls let people have a face-to-face session from wherever they are. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to share quick thoughts between sessions or when writing helps organize feelings. These formats help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
