About Jennifer

Jennifer Seward is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida who brings two decades of clinical practice to her work with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma, mood concerns, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She combines practical, holistic thinking with evidence-based methods to help clients navigate painful life events, manage symptoms, and develop actionable coping strategies. Her background includes substantial work with trauma survivors and individuals dealing with parenting challenges, grief, addiction, and relationship or intimacy struggles.

Drawing on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered care, she attends to how a person’s environment and relationships affect functioning. Jennifer aims to offer a respectful, nonjudgmental space while partnering with clients to identify solutions and build skills.

She describes herself as open and direct in sessions while maintaining support and empathy. Available to clients in Florida and to international clients, Jennifer frames therapy as a collaborative process that balances practical problem-solving with attention to emotional healing and values-based growth.

Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online

Jennifer integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into online work to help clients clarify values, build psychological flexibility, and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. ACT emphasizes connecting action to what matters most while learning to live alongside difficult feelings, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. CBT offers structured techniques for recognizing thought patterns and developing practical coping skills useful for stress management, ADHD-related challenges, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is presented as a collaborative process. The therapist will explore a client's goals, preferences, and experiences to recommend or combine methods that fit best, and will adjust strategies over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy with Jennifer uses flexible formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate varied schedules and communication styles. These options support continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult and allow clients to engage in therapy from different locations while working with a licensed professional.
