She also works with concerns such as career issues, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, eating and body image concerns, and compassion fatigue. Jennifer aims to tailor treatment to each person’s needs, drawing on DBT skills, motivational interviewing, and other approaches when helpful to address coping, impulsivity, sleep problems, and life transitions.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Jennifer commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to structure work in sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical coping strategies to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, or sleep difficulties. DBT offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship challenges.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting methods over time based on what proves most helpful. This means approaches may be blended - skills-based work, reflective narrative work, and mindfulness practices can all be used together to meet individual needs.

Online therapy with this clinician is delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility for people in California. These formats allow clients to engage in skills practice, coaching, and reflective conversations from different settings and on varied schedules, supporting continuity of care and convenience while working toward meaningful change.
