Autumn Jarvis, LCSW, LICSW

Autumn Jarvis is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. She holds an MSW - a Master of Social Work - and earned a Bachelor of Science in Vocational Rehabilitation with concentrations in substance abuse, criminal justice, and psychiatric rehabilitation. Autumn is licensed in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan and maintains clinical credentials as LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker), reflecting advanced training in assessment and therapeutic intervention.

Her practice draws on experience across community mental health, county services, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, the Veteran's Affairs system, and a range of outpatient clinics. She works collaboratively with clients to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and practical strategies developed. Autumn helps clients build skills for managing mood and stress, address addiction and trauma, navigate grief and loss, and strengthen relationships and self-esteem.

Outside of her clinical role she enjoys time with her son and two dogs, coffee and reading, CrossFit and running, cheering for the Green Bay Packers, and sharing meals with positive people. She balances this practice with a full-time role, so availability may vary; if no openings are visible she encourages prospective clients to reach out and she will try to accommodate them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Autumn Jarvis uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking action toward what matters to them - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship in which the therapist supports the client's own insight and growth, which is helpful for self-esteem, grief, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is also a frequent tool in her work - it helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping skills for depression, anxiety, and behavioral challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Autumn works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time based on what is most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexibility to schedule sessions around daily life and to meet from home or other convenient locations. Autumn provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to attend regular sessions, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable.
