Jennifer Perry, LPC

Jennifer Perry is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a certified marriage and family therapist with 15 years of clinical experience. She uses a personalized, integrative approach that draws from a range of evidence-based techniques and adapts methods to meet each client’s unique needs and goals. Jennifer focuses on empowering people to build on their strengths, develop practical coping tools, and navigate life’s challenges, whether they are facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strains, or major life transitions.

Her clinical background spans acute and outpatient settings, including work in behavioral health hospitals, emergency departments, hospital medical floors, and outpatient programs. She served for more than a decade as the lead counselor at one of Georgia’s largest behavioral health hospitals, where she provided direct care and supervised other counselors. Early in her career she earned two degrees from the University of Georgia and gained research experience in the university’s psychopharmacology laboratory.

Jennifer welcomes clients who are contending with stress, mood disorders, obsessive and compulsive concerns, social anxiety, relationship breakdowns, substance use challenges, and issues common to midlife and women’s concerns. She offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore emotions, gain new perspectives, and work collaboratively toward meaningful, lasting change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Jennifer uses an integrative evidence-based approach that blends practical coping skills with relational work. In plain terms, this means she helps clients learn concrete strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety and depression while also exploring patterns in relationships that contribute to distress - a combination that supports both symptom relief and deeper change.

As a certified marriage and family therapist, she applies family systems perspectives when relationship dynamics are central, helping couples and families improve communication, set boundaries, and resolve conflicts. She also emphasizes skills-focused work for stress, grief, and life transitions, teaching problem-solving, emotion regulation, and behavioral techniques that clients can use day to day.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer works with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to attend appointments, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from home or work.
