About Jennifer

Jennifer Malott is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 12 years of clinical experience. She works in Indiana and helps people with anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, and stress related to work and family. She also addresses issues such as addictions, grief, self-esteem, and parenting challenges.

Jennifer draws on straightforward, practical methods. She keeps sessions goal focused and client-centered. Conversations aim to identify patterns in thoughts and habits and find small steps to change them. Sessions are relaxed but focused on concrete next steps.

Her background includes earlier work as a vocational counselor, which informs help with employment and career stress. That experience is useful when someone is juggling job demands with family responsibilities. She also has experience supporting people facing trauma, attachment issues, and eating-related concerns.

Jennifer uses a mix of approaches that fit specific problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and DBT skills can support emotion regulation and value-driven action. Mindfulness and client-centered methods shape how conversations are held.

Sessions focus on practical tools - for example, identifying thought patterns, building small behavioral experiments, and practicing coping skills. Jennifer works with people on issues including LGBT concerns, ADHD, blended family stress, caregiver strain, and forgiveness. She communicates in English and practices in Indiana.

How Jennifer Uses Structured Approaches Online

Jennifer often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood. ACT emphasizes clarifying personal values and taking committed actions even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present.

Client-Centered principles guide how she talks with people online, offering space to reflect and choose which skills to try next. She works collaboratively to decide which approach fits a person’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing one method up front.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life - for example, shorter check-ins can be scheduled during a work break, or video sessions let people use visual cues when practicing emotion regulation skills. Jennifer will help plan practical steps and exercises that can be used between sessions to reinforce learning and problem solving.
