About Jennifer

Jennifer Gadberry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Southeast Missouri with 23 years of experience supporting children, teens, young adults, and families. She began her career as a crisis counselor, later worked in outpatient settings and a residential treatment center for children and adolescents, and also serves as an Instructor of Psychology. Over the years she has provided in-home counseling and maintained a private practice where she offers individual, couple, and family therapy.

Her work has addressed a wide range of concerns including relationship difficulties, eating and food-related issues, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and family conflict. As a college instructor she frequently engages with young adults and assists people navigating life transitions. Jennifer draws from a client-centered, humanistic perspective that emphasizes each personâs strengths and capacity for growth, and she integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness and relaxation practices, and narrative activities to support change in thoughts and behaviors.

Grounded in a Christian faith foundation, she aims to foster insight and hope while collaborating with clients to create solution-focused plans. Jennifer approaches the therapeutic relationship as a respectful partnership and encourages those ready to take the next step toward emotional and mental wellbeing to reach out for support.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the therapist follows the client's lead, listens deeply, and helps the person build on existing strengths - an approach that often benefits those facing life transitions, relationship concerns, or self-esteem challenges. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skills - an approach commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. In addition, Solution-Focused Therapy helps clients set concrete goals and identify small, achievable steps toward change, which can be especially helpful for people seeking faster, action-oriented progress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jennifer works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods to fit the individual situation. This collaborative process helps determine whether to emphasize client-centered exploration, CBT skills, solution-focused planning, or a combination of approaches.

Online therapy with Jennifer is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods, coordinate care for family members, and access support from home or other locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists committed to helping clients move forward.
