About Jennifer
Jennifer Wickham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 26 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, parenting strain, grief, and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, codependency, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Her practice focuses on helping people notice patterns that keep them stuck, such as putting others first or having trouble saying no. Sessions are practical and conversational. Jennifer uses therapy methods that help people change how they think, feel, and respond in daily life.
She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current behavior. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different responses. For trauma-related issues, she includes EMDR and DBT skills as appropriate.
Jennifer has worked in inpatient adolescent residential treatment and community mental health clinics. She consults with the Wisconsin Association for Infant Mental Health and has training in infant, early childhood, and family mental health from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Her master’s degree in mental health counseling is from the University of Wisconsin–Stout.
In sessions she blends practical skills, reflective conversation, and movement toward realistic goals. She emphasizes steady, small steps rather than quick fixes. Outside of work she is a parent, runs RAGNAR races, practices yoga, plays viola, and spends time crafting and reading.
How sessions work
How Jennifer’s approaches translate to online work
Jennifer uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current behavior. That approach helps when patterns of people-pleasing, boundary difficulties, or repeated hurt in relationships are the main concern. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and practice new responses in daily life. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when concrete skill practice is needed.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can include skills practice, reflective conversation, and step-by-step problem solving so the plan matches what the person wants to change.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for quicker check-ins when life gets hectic. They also make it possible to use visual materials or screen-sharing for skill work, or to choose a shorter session when needed. Many licensed professionals find the same therapeutic approaches work well in online settings when sessions are adapted to the client's life and goals.
