About Jennifer

Jennifer Christensen is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, and the aftereffects of trauma and abuse. She focuses on building self-esteem and tackling common struggles like codependency, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness. Jennifer writes simply and listens closely to each person’s story to find practical next steps.

She favors a solution-focused stance in sessions, pairing short-term goals with tools people can use between meetings.

Background and approach

Jennifer draws on approaches such as EMDR, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness to address painful memories and improve emotional regulation. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented so progress is clear. Jennifer holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential - LCSW - and has five years of clinical experience.

She also has prior work in school social work, community engagement, and program development. That broader background informs how she supports adults and adolescents with family of origin concerns, blended family issues, and parenting-related stress. Her work includes helping people cope with seasonal affective disorder, self-harm urges, body image struggles, sexual assault and abuse recovery, and post-traumatic stress.

Jennifer also supports those facing divorce or separation, guilt or shame, and social isolation. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through a mix of video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. She practices from Utah and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

Online support

How EMDR, DBT, and Mindfulness Work Online

Jennifer commonly uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to help people process distressing memories and reduce how strongly those memories affect daily life. The approach involves guided attention and processing steps that can be adapted to remote sessions.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving relationships. DBT in online sessions focuses on skills practice, tracking progress, and building routines that fit your life. Mindfulness therapy is used alongside these methods to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, often through short practices and grounding exercises you can do between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk through your goals, past attempts at care, and preferences, then recommend starting steps and adjust as you go. That shared process helps match techniques to the issues you want to solve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let you send notes, practice skills, or check in between calls. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around school, work, or family commitments.
