Jennifer Rice, LMFT

Jennifer Rice is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Pennsylvania with a long career in the mental health field. She brings two decades of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families, and has been working as a licensed therapist for 13 years. Her practice focuses on a range of concerns including stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and communication challenges, parenting and family dynamics, fertility-related struggles, grief and loss, intimacy issues, and LGBTQ matters.

Her approach is relaxed and conversational while also encouraging clients to notice recurring patterns that may be keeping them stuck in personal or professional areas of life. She uses a blend of psychotherapy models and tailors each session to the client or family’s needs. She has training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy techniques, Solution-Focused therapy, and Strategic therapy, approaches her clients have reported as particularly helpful. As an LMFT she pays attention to how systems - family, work, and social circles - influence an individual’s wellbeing.

Jennifer frames therapy as a collaborative effort, inviting clients to take the first steps toward change and working together to reach their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Jennifer integrates several evidence-based approaches when working with clients. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally Focused Therapy techniques help partners and family members explore underlying emotions and improve attachment-related communication to strengthen relationships. She also draws on Solution-Focused methods that emphasize setting clear goals and building on existing strengths to create meaningful change in shorter timeframes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jennifer collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds and priorities shift.

Online therapy offers flexibility for scheduling and access. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can engage in treatment in ways that fit their daily life and commitments. These options make it easier to participate consistently in therapy while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to individual and family concerns.
