She offers calm, interactive counseling that focuses on practical steps people can use every day. Jenna helps with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship strains, grief, addictions, and postpartum depression among other concerns.

Her work centers on clear, goal-oriented talks. She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical behavior tools, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to shape each session. Conversations aim to uncover what matters to the client and to build skills for handling hard moments.

Jenna draws on a decade of practice to adapt plans to each person’s needs. She pays attention to sensitivity, individuality, and respect when creating a treatment plan. The focus is on helping people accept what they can, change what they choose, and move toward their goals.

Sessions often include practical skill-building for mood, stress, and relationship problems. Jenna also supports people working through trauma and recovery from abuse by combining skills work with careful pacing. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s own answers are discovered and applied.

She works in Oregon and communicates in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling that fits the client’s life. Jenna keeps a flexible schedule with days, evenings, and weekends to help people fit therapy into busy routines.

How these approaches guide online care

ACT - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for depression, anxiety, and life transitions where someone wants clearer direction.

CBT - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with mood symptoms, worry, and problem solving in everyday life.

DBT - Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for intense emotions and relationship challenges. It provides step-by-step strategies people can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenna will review goals and preferences with each person and choose or combine methods that fit their needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Confirm available session formats before booking so you know how sessions are held. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare, and other responsibilities. It also allows shorter check-ins, options that do not require video, and consistent weekly sessions when travel or scheduling is difficult. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively when they adapt tools to the online setting and to each person’s routine.
