About Jennifer
Jennifer Getz is a licensed clinical social worker with 24 years of experience helping people handle stress and anxiety. She works with adults who are facing low mood, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, and major life changes. Her approach centers on listening carefully and helping people use their own strengths to move forward.
She encourages a practical, step-by-step process. Sessions focus on clear goals such as reducing social anxiety, improving communication, or building self-love.
Background and approach
Conversations include problem-solving, small experiments to try between sessions, and honest reflection about what is and isn’t working. Jennifer emphasizes collaboration. She invites clients to name what matters most and then she helps shape the work around those priorities.
That can mean practicing new ways to speak up, learning to forgive yourself or others, or finding meaning and purpose after a big change. Her methods aim to be straightforward and usable in daily life. She helps people break down overwhelming problems into smaller tasks.
This keeps progress steady and achievable. Jennifer values courage and change. She recognizes how hard the first step can be and offers a calm, steady presence while clients practice new skills.
People looking to reduce anxiety, manage stress, or strengthen their sense of self may find this approach practical and encouraging.
Approaches that help reduce anxiety and build coping skills
Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and skill building. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Another approach centers on developing concrete coping skills - like regulated breathing, behavioral experiments, and graded exposure - to make everyday situations feel more manageable.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they will try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is tracked.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided practice. Phone sessions can be easier when lower bandwidth or less screen time is needed. Live chat and text messaging can support brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching between sessions, or shorter exchanges when a full session won’t fit the day. These options make it easier to get consistent support while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
