About Jennifer
Jennifer Quinn is a licensed clinician - Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) - practicing in Michigan with 16 years of experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Her work also covers motivation, self-esteem, and issues that come up around relationships and caregiving.
Jennifer uses straightforward conversation and practical strategies in sessions. She draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness to guide the work. That means sessions can include noticing thoughts and feelings, experimenting with new behaviors, and processing difficult memories when needed.
People who struggle with patterns like people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or being drained by someone else’s moods will find focus areas that match those concerns. She also has experience with addiction, grief, intimacy-related issues, body image and eating concerns, and ADHD. Codependency is listed among her additional focus areas and can be part of what she addresses in conversations.
Sessions involve clear goals and practical steps. Jennifer adapts the pace to what each person needs, offering skills practice and a mix of talking and experiential work. She aims to help people notice what keeps them stuck and try different ways of responding in relationships and daily life.
Her background includes many years working across clinical settings and with varied concerns. People who are looking to change patterns that leave them feeling overwhelmed or depleted can explore those issues together and plan next steps.
How sessions work
How Jennifer uses CBT, ACT and EMDR in remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and patterns that keep someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and trying concrete experiments to change them. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that can help process painful memories so they have less emotional charge; it is used when past events are getting in the way of daily life.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about goals, try different methods, and adjust based on how the person responds. That means the plan can shift over time as needs and preferences become clearer.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm the current options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to check in during a break, use shorter sessions when needed, or avoid being on camera if that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals can guide which methods suit remote work and adapt exercises so they work well in a live session.
