How Jennie’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can follow their own goals. It helps individuals clarify what they want to change and decide next steps for day-to-day life.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Jennie uses CBT-style techniques to break problems into concrete steps, teach coping skills, and reduce unhelpful patterns.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, emphasizes learning emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Those skills can be useful for managing strong feelings, improving relationships, and reducing self-destructive behaviors.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Jennie works collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts plans based on what is or isn’t working.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels while keeping the focus on practical progress.
