About Jennifer
Jennifer Robinson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 17 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trauma, and changes in relationships. Her style is warm and straightforward so conversations are clear and focused on what matters most to the client.
Jennifer builds short-term goals alongside longer-term work. She listens for patterns that get in the way, then helps people practice different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make daily life a little easier and to reduce the power of fear, avoidance, and shame. Her approach draws on evidence-informed methods. She uses practical skills from cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thinking.
She also leans on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice painful thoughts without being ruled by them. Attachment-based work is included when relationship patterns matter, and clients set the pace for deeper exploration. Jennifer offers straightforward coaching-style options for career and life-change goals alongside therapy for emotional wounds.
People come for help with a wide range of issues such as addictions, sleep problems, coping with chronic illness, body image concerns, and communication struggles. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, ADHD, and complex grief. Sessions are aimed at helping people practice new responses and gain more confidence in everyday life.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Jennifer often uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and practice different behaviors. CBT tasks are easy to adapt to video or phone sessions and often include exercises to try between meetings.She also uses elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing difficult feelings and choosing values-based actions. ACT can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions by teaching simple mindfulness and commitment skills clients can use in daily routines.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Jennifer asks about your goals and what has or has not worked before, then suggests methods to try. You and she can adjust the plan over time based on what feels most useful.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and interactive exercises. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, homework check-ins, or shorter exchanges between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on practical, skill-based work.
