About Jennifer

Dr. Jennifer Todd welcomes people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or drained by life changes and big stressors. She helps individuals who are struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, career pressures, addiction concerns, grief, trauma, and the aftereffects of disasters. Her approach centers on listening first and building on each person's strengths so they can move toward clearer choices and better day-to-day functioning.

With 24 years of experience as an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - she draws on practical therapy methods to meet real problems. Sessions focus on concrete skills for managing worry and improving sleep, coaching for career and motivation, and support for coping with the emotional fallout of loss or crisis. She also addresses relationship stress, parenting strain, and issues such as body image or caregiver burnout.

Her style balances direct work on patterns of thought and behavior with attention to feelings and personal meaning. That means using techniques to change unhelpful thinking alongside conversations about values, attachment, and closeness. Mindfulness practices and emotion-focused work are used when they fit the person's needs.

Dr. Todd treats concerns like depression, anger, intimacy-related struggles, and ADHD with a practical, person-focused stance. She invites clients to set goals and try steps between sessions so progress shows up in daily life. She aims to make therapy a collaborative process that matches what each person needs now.

How therapy approaches shape online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the person's lead, so online sessions focus on what matters most to the client and adapt to their pace. This approach helps when someone needs space to tell their story and find their own solutions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, actions, and feelings and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Online work can include practicing those skills together, setting small experiments, and checking progress between meetings.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and work with strong emotions to improve relationships and attachment needs. In remote sessions this can mean guided conversations and exercises that increase emotional awareness and closeness where appropriate.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, life demands, and personal preference. That plan can change as progress is made and new needs appear.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time for many people. Licensed professionals can use the convenience of remote work to focus on skill practice, emotional processing, and goal tracking in ways that fit day-to-day routines.
