About Jennifer
Jennifer Rastetter is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Ohio who helps people facing anxiety, stress, trauma, and related struggles. She uses direct, straightforward support so clients know what to expect. Her approach balances challenge with empathy and practical steps people can try between sessions.
Clinically she draws from attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to break down unhelpful thinking and build coping skills.
Background and approach
For people with intense emotional swings or self-harm risks, elements of dialectical behavior therapy can offer clear emotion-regulation tools. Jennifer has a decade of clinical experience working with issues such as depression, panic attacks, addiction, and relationship and intimacy concerns. She also addresses topics like ADHD, codependency, abandonment, and family-of-origin patterns in straightforward, goal-oriented sessions.
Her background supports people who want focused work and measurable changes. Sessions typically involve setting small, realistic goals and practicing new skills between meetings. She can guide trauma processing when appropriate and help people rebuild safety in relationships.
Homework is practical and tied to daily life, not academic exercises. People who choose her often want a therapist who will be candid and direct while remaining compassionate. She speaks English and offers services from Ohio, working with a range of concerns from career stress to panic disorder and co-morbid conditions.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and reactions; online sessions can use talk and guided exercises to help people notice patterns and try new ways of connecting. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments, which works well through video or phone check-ins and daily homework. EMDR, when offered, is a trauma-focused method that uses bilateral stimulation alongside processing; therapists adapt pacing and tools so trauma work can proceed safely over distance.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and comfort with different methods. Together they decide whether to try CBT skills, attachment work, trauma processing, or a mix, and they adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth work and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, or continued work between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
