About Jennifer
Jennifer Plunkett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, and difficulties with focus such as ADHD. Jennifer works with adults who find themselves putting others first, losing their sense of self, or managing the fallout from someone else’s moods or crises.
In sessions she keeps the work direct and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now, patterns that repeat in relationships, and small steps a person can try between meetings. She listens for how abandonment, attachment, control, and communication problems shape daily life and practical choices.
Jennifer draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma responses, concentration problems, and the fallout of long-term caregiving. She uses concrete tools to help people notice patterns, set clearer boundaries, and rebuild confidence. Therapy often includes short exercises and check-ins to track progress over time.
Her background includes treating a range of related issues such as dissociation, body image concerns, blended family tensions, chronic illness, and separation or divorce. Sessions also touch on co-morbidity and overlapping personality concerns when those issues affect daily functioning.
She provides care in English and practices in Texas. Prospective clients select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session to begin the process.
How sessions work
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding relationship patterns and reducing trauma-related reactions. For example, trauma-focused approaches help people name and reduce overwhelming memories and physical reactions so day-to-day functioning improves. These methods are useful when past abuse or loss keeps affecting current relationships.She also uses attention-focused strategies to support people with ADHD or concentration problems. These include concrete behavioral tweaks and brief exercises to make routines and focus more manageable. These approaches help with motivation, memory, and completing everyday tasks.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Jennifer treats the choice of techniques as collaborative and adjusts based on the client’s goals, symptoms, and comfort. She will talk through options and try approaches together to see what fits best.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let clients use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that helps them focus. Licensed professionals can support goal-oriented work through virtual sessions, and Jennifer will help plan practical steps that fit into everyday routines.
