About Jennifer
Jennifer Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with eight years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and anger. Jennifer also supports people dealing with depression, addictions, sleep problems, self-esteem struggles, career stress, ADHD, and codependency concerns.
Her approach is straightforward. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping. Sessions involve talking through specific problems, testing small changes, and tracking what helps. Jennifer focuses on practical steps rather than vague promises.
Clients can expect clear goals and short-term strategies alongside deeper trauma work when needed. She helps people set boundaries, manage overwhelming feelings, and make plans for everyday life. For those worn down by someone else’s moods or drinking, she addresses how those dynamics affect choices and wellbeing.
Jennifer offers sessions in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. She describes costs as varying by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the online therapy options button.
Her style is direct and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can be done next. Jennifer encourages clear steps, honest feedback, and regular check-ins on progress.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. That approach breaks problems into concrete parts and works well for anxiety, stress, sleep issues, and mood struggles.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and try small, specific changes. This can be useful when someone wants practical steps for boundary‑setting, people-pleasing, or improving day-to-day functioning. For clients who have experienced trauma, Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses how past events affect current reactions and coping, and guides paced work on those memories and responses.
Choosing the best approach is a shared process. Jennifer will talk with each person about what matters most, what has or hasn’t worked before, and what feels doable. Together they decide whether to focus on symptom relief, skill-building, or deeper trauma work, and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the exact session formats offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. It also makes consistent follow-ups and homework review simpler, which supports steady progress over time.
