I’ve been seeing therapists since I was a child and Jennifer is one of the best I’ve ever had. She is incredibly validating, insightful and honest. She knows the right questions to ask and when to do it. I can say I want to tackle specific topics or we can see where the session takes us but I’ve always finished feeling like I’ve accomplished something. She is quick to respond to messages outside of our weekly session and the quality of her responses never dwindles due to it being through the message portal rather than our live sessions. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

More about Jennifer
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LICSW
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I received my Masters Degree from Columbia University in New York, NY. I worked in psychiatric Emergency Rooms and on inpatient psychiatric units. I have been providing outpatient therapy for the past nine years.
I have extensive experience working with couples as well as individuals. I feel like communication is the key to success. Changing communication styles can radically change relationships. I have worked with an array of disorders which include, but not limited to anxiety, PTSD, depression, relationship issues, gender issues, parenting and co-parenting. I tend to use an eclectic approach to therapy, as it is in my belief that no two clients should be looked at the same. I integrate CBT, DBT and the psychodynamic approach.
And lastly, over the past nine years, I have been working with couples and families. I find it fascinating that individuals can have gone through the same event and will interpret the event differently. It has been in my experience that when an outside, unbiased sounding board is introduced, real change can happen.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Jennifer is a very easy to talk to and fun therapist. She is very open and shows she cares about youre interests and whatever problems you have to tackle. She can be professional and serious but also keeps the mood light
She’s great
Jennifer is a really fantastic therapist who has met my needs and expectations in every way imaginable. I'm so happy I took the leap and signed up for therapy through BetterHelp!
Jennifer is amazing. She really listens to me and she gets me. I feel lucky to have found her.
Attentive, punctual, offers real advice and real solutions
Jennifer Brown "gets it". In a very short time she got to the root of my problem and made me feel better about myself and made me realize none of the issues I have are my fault. I'm looking forward to continuing my healing journey with her and I know together we will get to where I want to be. She's really got a special talent and I am blessed to have found her.
Jennifer has even very helpful so far, listening to my needs and being very committed to our communication. She doesn't just listen to what I have to say but also looks for the best possible way to help me actively.
Jennifer is really caring. She has been great about checking in and is a good listener.
only one session so far but I have the upmost confidence in Jennifers expertise as well as how much she is able to help me
She is very kind and listens to all my concerns .
Just outstanding someone who listens and asks the right questions to help me
I’ve already shared my experience with Better Health to 3 people and encouraged them to seek out your website.
She is a true gem. Could not recommend her enough, especially as it relates to relationship issues and understanding oneself. You only come across people like Jennifer once in a lifetime. I have so much respect for this woman, my situation was and is as chaotic as can be. She is helping me see lights otherwise unimaginable.
