About Jennifer

Jennifer Torres is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of clinical experience in Florida. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and struggles with addiction and self-esteem. Sessions are presented in English and target practical changes in thoughts and behavior.

Jennifer uses clear, structured methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside attachment-informed and client-centered work. She focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of responding. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at creating manageable steps people can try between sessions.

Her background includes long-term work across inpatient, outpatient, and community settings. That history includes treating substance use and delivering mental health services to a range of adults. She has also held administrative roles developing programs and quality improvement initiatives.

In sessions she asks for practical information about what is happening day to day. That helps set specific goals and build simple strategies for coping and emotional regulation. She draws on techniques from DBT when emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills are needed.

Jennifer also attends to relationship patterns and attachment issues when those are part of what brings someone to therapy. She incorporates existential themes when questions about meaning, loss, or major life change arise. Her work aims for clear, actionable steps rather than abstract discussion.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Jennifer commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or stress. CBT sessions often include specific exercises, thought records, and behavior experiments to try between meetings.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relationship patterns and how past bonds affect present reactions. That approach is useful when connection, trust, or intimacy concerns are part of the problem. Client-Centered Therapy appears in her practice as a way to keep the conversation focused on the client’s priorities and to build a clear, respectful working plan together.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to decide whether CBT, attachment-focused work, or client-centered methods best fit their goals and preferences. This is an adaptive process that can change as goals evolve.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Many people find online sessions helpful because they reduce travel time, fit into a workday more easily, or let them choose a format that matches their needs for shorter check-ins or full-length sessions. Licensed professionals can then focus on concrete skills, strategies, and problem-solving during those appointments.
