About Jennifer

Jennifer Branin is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) with 13 years of professional experience supporting adults through issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She draws on a wide clinical background that includes work with first responder concerns, domestic violence, mood and personality disorders, and process or substance-related addictions, bringing practical tools alongside empathetic listening. Her style is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and collaborative.

Jennifer emphasizes active listening and respectful curiosity, inviting clients to clarify goals while she offers observations and gentle challenge to unhelpful thinking and behaviors. She encourages positive self-care, constructive thinking habits, and behavior changes that align with the client’s values and desired direction.

Therapeutic work with Jennifer often blends skill-based interventions and trauma-focused approaches. Clients can expect clear problem-solving strategies, mindfulness techniques, and tailored plans aimed at reducing symptoms and increasing day-to-day functioning.

She welcomes the first step of reaching out and partners with each person to create practical, achievable progress.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care



Jennifer commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing into her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill-building, which can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and mood regulation. EMDR uses guided processing to address distress tied to traumatic memories and can support recovery from past abuse or other traumatic events.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer partners with clients to explore their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time so therapy stays aligned with what helps most. Clients are invited to offer feedback and to adjust focus as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit consistent care into busy schedules, maintain continuity while traveling or managing work shifts, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for each person.
