About Jennie

Jennie Harvat is an LCSW with ten years of clinical experience helping people navigate trauma, mood challenges, and major life transitions. She uses evidence-based methods with a trauma-informed sensibility that respects emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions of healing.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes emotional regulation, increased clarity, and strategies for building long-term resilience. Along with more traditional therapeutic techniques, Jennie integrates gentle mind-body practices such as sound therapy and offers individualized suggestions for supportive herbal remedies when appropriate.

Her approach is grounded and direct yet compassionate, aimed at helping people break persistent patterns and reconnect with a more authentic sense of self.

Jennie lists ADHD among her areas of focus and also works with stress, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and an array of relational and internal concerns including attachment issues, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, and panic symptoms.

Based in Missouri, she brings a practical orientation to therapy that balances skills training with deeper processing, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs and goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Jennie draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on teaching practical skills and processing difficult experiences. One core approach she frequently uses emphasizes emotional regulation skills to reduce intense reactions and manage anxiety and mood symptoms; these strategies help people identify triggers and develop tools for steadier emotional responses. Another commonly applied method centers on trauma-informed processing that carefully explores past and present wounds while attending to the body's responses, supporting recovery from post-traumatic stress and abuse.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Jennie works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting methods over time so therapy aligns with the individual's needs and pace.

Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make regular care more flexible and accessible. These options allow people to receive ongoing support around work and life obligations, maintain continuity during transitions, and choose the communication style that best fits their day-to-day routine.
