About Jennie

Jennie Young is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, addictions, grief, low self-esteem, and the pressures of life change. Her practice also addresses relationship concerns, parenting strain, depression, and compassion fatigue.

She uses clear, practical conversations to identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. Sessions focus on spotting unhelpful thinking, testing different responses, and building manageable habits that fit a daily routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and client-centered methods guide this work without promising quick fixes.

Jennie draws on two decades of experience working with many common life challenges. She also supports people facing aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, end-of-life concerns, and recovery from substance and process addictions. She helps clients work through panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety, and seasonal mood changes.

In sessions she listens for concrete patterns and suggests small experiments clients can try between meetings. She offers straightforward feedback and practical skills for coping, communicating, and regulating strong emotions. Progress is tracked through specific goals and brief check-ins.

All work is done in English and based in Alabama. People who want to begin are invited to use the site process to match and schedule their first appointment, where practical next steps are set together.

How CBT and Client-Centered Work Translate to Online Sessions

Jennie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify thinking patterns that feed anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. CBT in practice means noticing specific thoughts, testing them with small experiments, and building new habits that reduce distress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says so they can clarify their own goals and choices.

Deciding which approach to emphasize happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, what has helped or not helped before, and what the client prefers. That lets them pick practical exercises and a pace that fits the client’s life and priorities.

The exact session formats are not listed here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can help fit meetings into a busy schedule, make shorter check-ins easier, and remove travel time. It can also allow sessions when someone needs quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth, or a check-in during a work break. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep therapy focused on clear goals, skill practice, and measurable progress.
