About Jenna
Jenna Lopez is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) in Nebraska with 15 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, and issues around sexual orientation and gender identity. She also supports people dealing with relationship problems, grief, parenting strain, codependency, ADHD, and other life changes.
Jenna uses straightforward, person-centered work that emphasizes strengths and practical steps. She treats the person as the expert on their own life and offers guidance, tools, and advocacy to reach the goals they set. Sessions are focused on honest conversation and concrete problem solving rather than vague theory.
Her background is in social work and long-term community mental health. Much of her career has involved working with people who have experienced trauma or who are coping with major mental health symptoms. She also has experience supporting people with questions of sexual orientation, gender identity, and non-traditional relationship styles.
In practice she combines attachment-based ideas with cognitive and behavioral tools and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when useful. Mindfulness practices and narrative techniques are used to help people notice patterns and try different responses. She also helps clients connect to resources and build action plans they can follow between sessions.
Jenna stresses a nonjudgmental stance and clear, actionable steps. She encourages honesty in sessions and works with clients to reduce shame and rebuild a sense of agency. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Jenna integrates attachment-based ideas, client-centered work, and cognitive behavioral techniques into online sessions. Attachment-based work focuses on how past and present relationship patterns shape current feelings and reactions; it helps people notice how they connect and practice different ways of relating. Client-centered therapy centers the person's perspective, using open listening and reflection to help clarify goals and choices. Cognitive behavioral work involves identifying thought and behavior patterns and trying small experiments to change unhelpful cycles.Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Jenna will talk with clients about their goals, test what feels helpful, and adjust methods as progress and needs evolve. The emphasis is on practical skills, clearer communication, and plans that can be practiced between sessions.
The biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, a phone option when bandwidth is limited, or a video session when visual cues help the work. Therapists and licensed professionals often use these kinds of arrangements to keep therapy usable alongside everyday responsibilities.
