More about Jennifer
- 23 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am an LCSW licensed in the state of Maine with over 20 years' experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, chronic illness and grief and loss.
My style is warm and non-judgmental. I believe in treating everyone with compassion, sensitivity and respect. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach includes cognitive- behavioral, solution-focused, mindfulness and client centered therapy. I will tailor our work to your unique and specific needs.
I believe it takes a lot of courage to reach out for support and I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
I hope to meet you soon!

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.
