About Jennifer

Jennifer Buer is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 10 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, family conflict, and depression. She aims to make the first step feel manageable and welcomes honest conversations about what’s hard right now.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She focuses on listening first, then works together with each person to set clear, practical goals. Sessions are a place to talk through feelings, build coping skills, and try new ways of handling everyday pressures.

Jennifer uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop new patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice values and make choices that matter. Emotionally-Focused Therapy informs how she supports people through strong emotions and relationship moments.

She keeps things direct and practical in sessions. That can mean practicing a new skill, talking through a recent conflict, or setting small steps to rebuild confidence. Progress is often about trying things between sessions and checking what works.

Jennifer is based in California and holds the LMFT credential. She speaks English and brings a decade of clinical experience to conversations about coping with life changes and ongoing mood concerns.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Jennifer often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and test thoughts that increase worry or low mood, and then practice new ways of thinking and behaving that reduce stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on identifying personal values and taking steps toward them, even when difficult emotions are present.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress and needs change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills in the settings where they live. Licensed professionals tailor session pacing and homework so therapy fits day-to-day life rather than disrupting it.
