About Jennifer
Jennifer Maise-Cormier is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are coping with addiction and related challenges such as stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. Jennifer listens closely and helps people make practical changes they can keep.
She draws on a decade of work leading intensive group therapy and individual support. That background means she has experience guiding people through habit change and relapse prevention.
Background and approach
Jennifer pays attention to a person’s whole life - their routine, relationships, and goals - when planning steps forward. Sessions are conversational and action oriented. She asks about what has already been tried, then helps brainstorm alternatives that fit daily life.
Jennifer emphasizes small, manageable changes that build confidence over time. Jennifer also supports concerns around parenting, self-esteem, career stress, LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy, sleeping, anger, and attention differences. She frames these as problems to work on together rather than labels.
Her coaching-style moments focus on skills people can practice between meetings. Outside of work she spends time in northern Michigan kayaking with her dogs and riding bikes. Those interests shape a down-to-earth approach in sessions.
People who want straightforward guidance and practical tools often find her style a good match.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that fit both one-on-one and group settings. One common approach focuses on habit change and relapse prevention by identifying triggers, practicing new routines, and building coping skills. This method helps people break patterns that lead to substance use or other self-harming habits. Another approach emphasizes practical skill-building for stress, anxiety, and sleep concerns. It teaches short exercises and behavior changes people can use between sessions to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to review concerns, try methods, and adjust plans based on what actually helps. Goals and preferences guide which techniques are emphasized, and progress is reviewed regularly to keep work focused and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility and easier scheduling for busy lives. Video calls let people keep visual contact for deeper conversation, phone sessions can fit during a break or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging support quick check-ins or shorter coaching-style exchanges. These formats make it easier to keep momentum and practice new skills between meetings.
