About Jennifer

Jennifer Wickersham is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 21 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, ADHD, and an array of life transitions.

Background and approach

Her work often addresses grief, sleep difficulties, parenting and family dynamics, and issues such as self-esteem, anger, career changes, and compassion fatigue. Her style blends a person-centered stance with evidence-informed methods.

Jennifer emphasizes a collaborative therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy and practical problem solving. She frequently uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, and draws on mindfulness and motivational strategies to build coping skills and sustain change.

Over two decades she has supported clients through PTSD, bipolar challenges, and complex family or communication problems, and she also attends to specialized concerns like fertility, blended family adjustment, caregiving stress, and body image. Jennifer offers a goal-oriented, supportive approach that aims to create realistic, achievable steps toward improved functioning and well-being.

Integrating evidence-based approaches with online therapy



Jennifer commonly integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a genuine, empathic relationship where the client’s goals drive the process; this approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy is practical and skills-oriented, teaching ways to identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop coping strategies for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress.

Finding the right approach is presented as a collaborative process. Jennifer works with each person to evaluate which methods fit their needs and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so care aligns with evolving goals. She emphasizes teamwork and clear goal setting when shaping a treatment plan.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy schedules or those who prefer remote care. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of support, practice skills between sessions, and access therapy from different locations while working with a licensed professional.
