More about Jennifer
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LICSW
My name is Jenn and I am a mental health professional licensed in Alabama. I have over 5 years of experience working as a therapist and licensed clinical social worker. I have worked with people who've experienced trauma, depression, and anxiety as well as those dealing with changes and challenges in life. I believe it takes strength to seek out therapy as well as discuss issues and concerns in the present or past. My counseling approach is strength-based and person centered and starting where you're at emotionally, as well as where you are comfortable. I am strongly against any stigmatizing labels, and believe everyone should be treated with respect. I will tailor our sessions and treatment plan based off of your personalized needs.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
