Evidence-Based Methods for Online Support

Jennifer Brown commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to improve problem-solving. DBT emphasizes building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for people managing intense emotions or relationship challenges.

She also draws on solution-focused techniques to help clients set clear goals and identify small, practical steps toward change. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process - Jennifer collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Jennifer is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize accessibility and convenience. These options make it easier to attend regularly, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care during life transitions, while still working with a licensed professional experienced in treating stress, anxiety, grief, mood concerns, and relationship issues.
