Jennifer Fishman, LPC, LCPC

Jennifer Fishman is a licensed counselor with 17 years of experience who combines practical skills training with a client-focused approach. She holds the credentials LPC and LCPC - Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - and brings a background in adult education to her therapeutic work. Before training as a counselor, she taught at colleges and business schools, where she focused on helping students discover meaningful pathways in their lives. That same commitment to personal growth informs her counseling practice, which centers on helping people recognize and build on their strengths.

In session she meets clients where they are, blending evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with motivational strategies and solution-focused ideas to help people develop tools they can use outside of therapy. She emphasizes teaching these approaches so clients learn to manage stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, addictions, career transitions, and other life changes more effectively. Her style is adaptable and collaborative, and she aims to open new perspectives that empower clients to try unexpected solutions.

Jennifer works with individuals across a wide range of concerns - including mood disorders, trauma, parenting and intimacy issues, LGBT-related concerns, and career and self-esteem challenges - and she looks forward to getting to know each person she works with.

Evidence-Based Approaches Delivered Online

Jennifer integrates Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, empathetic relationship so clients can explore their values and goals and gain confidence in their own choices. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to improve coping with stress and life transitions. DBT emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and patterns that feel hard to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jennifer collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors methods so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model. That collaborative process helps determine whether one approach or a blend will be most useful.

Online therapy with Jennifer is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible and flexible. These options allow clients to schedule support around work, family, and other responsibilities and to receive consistent, professional help from licensed professionals in formats that suit their daily lives.
