About Jenny
Jenny Wright is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW, LCSW) practicing in Missouri who brings three years of licensed therapy experience and a long history in mental health work.
Background and approach
She earned a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kansas in 2019 and has moved through roles including case manager, therapist in an acute care setting, work at a children’s residential facility, and time at an intensive outpatient substance abuse program. That background informs her practical, skills-based approach to care.
Her style centers on collaboration and respect for each person’s strengths, with an emphasis on helping clients build tools that fit their lives. She draws from client-centered principles while using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused techniques, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, and mindfulness to tailor treatment to specific needs.
Areas of focus include stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, chronic pain and illness, and other mood and personality concerns. Jenny values understanding a client’s environment and social supports, and she aims to guide people toward practical changes and improved coping.
She accepts international clients and provides services in English, working to help each person use available resources and their own resilience to pursue meaningful life changes.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals and values guide the work. This approach helps people clarify priorities and build confidence while the therapist listens and reflects rather than directing the process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill-building, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many mood-related issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills to help manage intense emotions and improve daily functioning.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess goals, preferences, and life circumstances and then adapt techniques over time so the plan fits each client’s needs. That teamwork helps ensure strategies are relevant and sustainable.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from different locations. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, review exercises, and provide ongoing support in ways that integrate with daily life.
