About Jennifer

Jennifer Bassett is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) licensed in Florida with 10 years of clinical and family support experience. She works with adults facing addictions, relationship strain, family problems, stress, anxiety, grief, and questions about purpose and career. She also lists codependency among her focus areas and supports people dealing with commitment, communication, and intimacy-related concerns.

Jennifer is a military veteran and draws on that background when relevant to a client's story. She has experience helping people whose lives intersect with the family dependency legal system and has worked with adolescents in middle and high school. Her approach begins by recognizing the client's strengths and life knowledge rather than assuming answers are already known.

In sessions she listens for how patterns like people-pleasing, boundary trouble, or reliance on others show up day to day. She uses straightforward conversation to identify what keeps those patterns going and what small changes might shift them. Practical tools and chances to try new ways of relating are part of the work.

Jennifer uses methods drawn from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and other approaches to match the task at hand. She helps people set goals, practice clearer communication, and manage urges and stress that keep them stuck.

Her style is direct and collaborative. She invites clients to notice strengths they already have and to test new habits in real life. To start, prospective clients follow the site's matching steps and schedule an initial session to see if the fit feels right.

How sessions work

How Jennifer Uses Talk Methods Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can name what matters and notice their own strengths; it helps when someone feels overshadowed by others or unsure what they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers specific exercises to change unhelpful patterns like people-pleasing or avoidance. Motivational Interviewing concentrates on helping a person find their own reasons for change and can support work on addiction, commitment, or readiness to try new behaviors.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer will talk with a client about what they want to change and which methods might suit their goals. Together they adjust the focus as new priorities emerge, combining listening, skill practice, and short-term planning as needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments into busy schedules, doing shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoiding travel on workdays. Licensed professionals can use these formats to help clients practice communication skills, plan boundary-setting steps, and work through urges between sessions without promising a specific outcome.
