About Jennifer
Jennifer “Jenni” Mayes is a licensed clinical social worker with 18 years of experience. She practices in Texas and brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions. Jenni focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, self-esteem, and career concerns.
She creates an open space where clients can say what they are feeling without judgment. Conversations are direct and practical. The aim is to help people leave sessions with clearer next steps and usable tools.
Background and approach
Jenni uses approaches that center the client and focus on solutions. She listens first, then helps people set small goals. Sessions often include short-term problem solving and skills practice that can be used between meetings.
Her work addresses a wide range of related issues. These include abandonment, blended family issues, codependency, communication and control problems, divorce and separation, and substance use concerns. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, emptiness, hoarding, and fatherhood-related stress.
People who prefer a practical, listening-first approach may find this style helpful. The therapist aims to meet each person where they are and to tailor steps to daily life. Taking a first step is acknowledged as hard, and Jenni aims to make that step feel manageable.

Online support
How Jenni's Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy means the person sets the pace while the therapist follows their lead, listening closely and reflecting what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard about stress, shame, or family problems and wants a supportive, nonjudgmental listener.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable goals and practical steps. It is useful for people who want concrete changes for worries like anxiety, addiction habits, or relationship patterns and who prefer a forward-looking plan.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try methods, and adjust as needed so the approach fits the person's needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape each session plan.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is helpful for full conversations, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging is useful for ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and day-to-day life while keeping the focus on practical steps and progress.
