About Jennifer
Jennifer Kordell is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship struggles, trauma and burnout. She also helps people coping with life changes and career concerns. Sessions are conducted in English.
Her approach centers on client-centered work, which means she pays attention to what matters most to the person in front of her. She uses clear, direct conversation and stays patient while people move at their own pace. Jennifer combines that with cognitive behavioral and mindfulness strategies when they suit the goals someone brings to sessions.
In practical terms she talks through steps that can reduce anxiety and lift mood, practices skills for handling strong emotions, and helps people notice patterns that get in the way of healthy boundaries or self-respect. She can work with issues such as codependency, body image concerns, caregiver stress, and grief. Jennifer also addresses money worries, career questions, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Her background is in social work with a Master of Social Work degree. The LICSW credential means she is licensed to practice clinical social work in Minnesota. She has experience listening to many kinds of life stories and using that experience to support realistic next steps.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what the client brings to the session. Online, that means conversations start with current concerns and goals, and the therapist adjusts tone and pacing to match the person's comfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety or change unhelpful habits. In a virtual session that often means setting small homework tasks and reviewing progress together.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for regulating intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Online sessions can include practicing those skills, role-playing boundary-setting, and building a plan for handling strong feelings between meetings. Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work; the therapist helps clients decide together which methods fit their needs and preferences.
Confirm which session formats she currently offers before booking. When formats are not specified, ask about options that fit everyday life - short check-ins that work around a break at work, phone sessions that don't require video, or longer video sessions for deeper work. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into a busy routine, while still focusing on clear skills and achievable steps.
