About Jennifer
Jennifer Hamilton is a licensed clinical social worker with 27 years of experience. She supports people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, sleep problems, and mood changes. Her style is calm and curious and she includes faith when a client wants that to be part of care.
Jennifer uses straightforward, practical ways to help people manage symptoms and move toward goals. She draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and build small daily habits.
Background and approach
She also uses mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and steady attention. For people coping with traumatic memories, she offers trauma-focused methods that work with the body and memory to reduce distress. She also addresses sleep problems and helps people create routines that restore better rest.
When mood disorders or bipolar symptoms are present, sessions focus on safety, stability, and step-by-step planning. She pays attention to caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, guilt, and shame. Jennifer also has experience supporting veterans and people facing personality or mood disorder symptoms.
Conversations are tailored to each person’s practical needs and goals. Sessions are conducted in English from Kentucky and can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy flow.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people get clear about what matters and take small steps that match those values. It is useful for anxiety and depression because it focuses on living despite uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. People use it to handle stress, reduce impulsive reactions, and steady mood swings. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that works with memories and bodily sensations to reduce the intensity of traumatic reactions and make past events feel less disruptive.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals, try a few methods, and adjust the plan together. That collaborative process helps identify which combination of ACT, DBT skills, mindfulness, or trauma work fits your needs and daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you have a deeper conversation face to face. Phone can be lighter on bandwidth and easier during a break at work. Live chat and text messaging allow short check-ins and skill practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between appointments.
