About Autumn
Autumn Jarvis is a licensed social worker with 13 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, trauma, and depression. She focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier. Autumn aims to make sessions straightforward and nonjudgmental so people can talk about what matters to them.
She uses a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. In sessions she helps clients notice thoughts and feelings, try small behavior changes, and build goals that fit their life.
Background and approach
Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Autumn has worked in community mental health, county services, inpatient psychiatric care, Veteran’s Affairs, and outpatient clinics. That variety has shaped a flexible, down-to-earth style and a familiarity with different challenges people bring to therapy.
She draws on her past work to offer concrete tools rather than abstract theory. Autumn holds a Master of Social Work degree and maintains licenses as an LCSW and LICSW in Wisconsin and Minnesota. She balances her clinical work with parenting, running, CrossFit, and time with her dogs.
Those interests inform a practical, active approach to problem solving. People who reach out can expect focused, humane support for coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and work or career stress. Sessions emphasize small steps, steady progress, and building skills that fit everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Autumn commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and emotions without getting stuck, and it supports choosing actions that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thought patterns and behavior, offering concrete techniques to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful reactions.She approaches treatment collaboratively and treats finding the right fit as part of the work. Together with each client she reviews goals, tries approaches, and adjusts strategies based on what works. The process is paced to the person’s needs so therapy stays practical and goal-oriented.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video lets people work face-to-face when visual cues help. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between meetings.
