About Jennifer
Jennifer Picanso-Sutton is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Oregon. She has 13 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem issues. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk honestly about what’s hard for them.
Jennifer focuses on practical ways to cope with strong emotions and difficult memories. She listens first, then works with each person to set clear, manageable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions include tools for daily life as well as time to talk through painful experiences. Her work often addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She also supports people facing divorce or separation, domestic violence histories, family of origin issues, and patterns like codependency or control issues.
Jennifer uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered methods, and elements of the Gottman Method. These approaches shape conversations and skills practice, rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
Jennifer speaks English and works with people living in Oregon. To begin, a simple matching questionnaire connects people with her practice and scheduling options.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches suited to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and commit to actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and self-esteem struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which often helps with anxiety, mood, and addiction-related patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing self-destructive behaviors.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your concerns, discuss different methods, and together decide what feels most helpful for your goals and preferences. The plan can change over time as needs shift and progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions, send brief updates, or have shorter check-ins when that fits daily life.
