See online therapy optionsAbout Jennifer
Jennifer Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with eight years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, and related concerns. Jennifer works in both English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
Her approach centers on practical methods that address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different ways of responding. She also draws on solution-focused techniques to set clear goals and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past harm affects daily life.
Sessions are action-oriented and meant to produce small, usable changes. She helps people spot habits that get in the way, test new coping strategies, and track what helps over time. Jennifer frames work in short, concrete steps so progress is visible and measurable.
She has experience across a wide range of issues beyond anxiety and trauma. These include depression, addictions, grief, sleeping difficulties, self-esteem, career concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and handling life changes. Additional focus areas listed include attachment issues, communication problems, codependency, and dissociation.
Jennifer describes therapy as collaborative problem-solving. She encourages practical experiments between sessions, regular review of goals, and adjusting methods based on what actually works. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thinking that lead to distress, then test small behavioral changes to see what helps. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term, practical goals and find immediate steps toward them. When past harm affects present functioning, Trauma-Focused Therapy supports processing those experiences in ways that reduce daily symptoms.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans based on what is working. Clients and the therapist review progress regularly and pick techniques that fit the client’s routine and priorities.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is hard to arrange. It can also make it simpler to include practical homework and to review progress using tools or worksheets between sessions.
