About Autumn
Autumn Jarvis is a licensed social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, anger, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. She brings 13 years of clinical experience and a practical focus to sessions. Autumn aims to create a calm space where people can say what they’re feeling without judgment and begin making small, workable changes.
She trained in social work and holds a Master of Social Work degree, with earlier undergraduate study in vocational rehabilitation that covered substance use and psychiatric rehabilitation.
Background and approach
Autumn has practiced in community mental health, county services, inpatient psychiatric settings, Veterans Affairs, and outpatient clinics, which gave her experience with many types of challenges. In sessions she uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered methods alongside mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques.
That means she helps clients notice patterns of thought and behavior, practice skills in the moment, and choose values-driven actions that fit their lives. Autumn describes therapy as a collaborative process. She works with each person to set realistic goals, try straightforward strategies, and adjust as needed.
Her style is direct but warm, with an emphasis on building coping tools that people can use between sessions. She practices in Wisconsin and provides services in English. Outside work she enjoys time with her son and dogs, running, CrossFit, and simple comforts like coffee and pizza.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect what matters most. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, anger, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. It often suits worries, depression, and coping with difficult situations. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and supporting a person's own capacity to find solutions, which helps build trust and self-directed change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Autumn will collaborate with each person to combine methods that fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps the person make steadier progress.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills together. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people share updates or get brief support between visits. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and to keep momentum between meetings.
