About Jennifer

Jennifer Torres is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Florida with 25 years of experience. She works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addictions, and issues around intimacy and parenting. She also addresses codependency and related patterns like people-pleasing and trouble setting boundaries.

She uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. Jennifer listens to what matters to each person and builds from there. She draws on approaches that include attachment work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior ideas to address thoughts, feelings, and behavior.

In practical terms she helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck and practices concrete skills for change. That can include identifying unhelpful thinking, strengthening boundaries, managing strong emotions, and improving communication. She also supports people coping with life transitions, caregiver stress, and health-related concerns.

Jennifer has worked across inpatient, outpatient, and community settings and has experience with addiction treatment and program development. Her past roles included supervising clinicians and designing clinical programs, which informs how she structures longer term care and short-term work.

Sessions focus on clear goals and real-life change. Clients are encouraged to share what they want to work on and to try practical tools between sessions. The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current connection and trust. Online sessions can be a place to notice those patterns and practice new ways of relating, especially around intimacy and codependency concerns.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, listens carefully, and helps people name their goals. This approach is useful when someone feels lost in other people's needs and wants to clarify their own priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. In remote sessions Jennifer can teach straightforward CBT tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors between meetings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer will work with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she may combine elements from several approaches as the work evolves.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when days are busy, and avoid travel time so therapy fits into daily life. It also lets people do skills practice and homework from home or another quieter setting without needing to rearrange a whole day.
