About Jennifer
Jennifer Spinner is a licensed clinical social worker with more than 25 years of counseling experience. She brings a calm, steady presence and a straightforward style to sessions. Jennifer listens without judgment and helps people sort through stress, grief, relationship pain, and life transitions.
She uses a mix of practical approaches to match each person's needs. Sessions often focus on finding what matters to the client and building skills to manage anxiety, mood shifts, and addictive behaviors.
Background and approach
Jennifer also helps people improve communication, set boundaries, and rebuild confidence after loss or change. Jennifer draws on her background supporting people through major health problems and life disruptions. That experience informs how she helps with chronic illness, caregiver stress, and changes tied to aging.
She also works with those affected by trauma, attachment wounds, and parenting challenges. Her work combines acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive-behavioral tools and client-centered listening. Dialectical strategies and attachment-based perspectives are added when they fit the situation.
The aim is to create a clear, individualized plan that moves a person toward their goals. Sessions are available in English and Spanish and can be scheduled to fit different life demands. Jennifer asks clients to pick times that work for them and to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin the process.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Jennifer often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, which can reduce avoidance and build meaning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or sleep and eating problems. Client-Centered Therapy provides a listening-based foundation where the person leads the pace and priorities while the therapist offers empathy and validation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jennifer will discuss goals, preferences, and daily demands and then recommend methods that fit. That process is collaborative so the plan can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can work for quick check-ins or when writing feels more natural. These options help clients keep continuity of care around work, caregiving, or health-related schedules.
