More about Jennifer
- 11 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW, LICSW
As a therapist, I provide mental health services to diverse and underserved populations, including adults, seniors, and LGBTQ+ individuals. I have over 8 years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Alabama, Arizona, Illinois, and Utah.
My mission is to help my clients cope with various challenges and improve their well-being, using the biopsychosocial model that examines the interconnection between biology, psychology, and socio-environmental factors. I employ evidence-based treatment modalities, such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused CBT. I also have extensive training in geriatric assessment of cognitive and physical functioning, and I enjoy working with older adults. Additionally, I am a certified clinical supervisor with the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners, and I mentor and support other social workers in their professional development.

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.
