About Jennie
Jennie Bell is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and low self-esteem. She supports people facing depression, grief, addiction concerns, and challenges with sleep or intimacy. Jennie works with those coping with life changes, parenting pressures, career strain, and trauma or abuse.
She uses a person-focused style in sessions. Conversations are practical and aimed at real-life changes. Jennie listens without judgment and tailors the work to each person's needs and goals.
Background and approach
Her approach blends several well-known methods to fit the moment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and build more useful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships.
She also draws on client-centered and narrative techniques to center the client’s experience and reshape personal stories. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want help finding internal motivation to change addictive or stuck patterns. Jennie brings 15 years of experience in the field and holds a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential in New York.
In sessions she focuses on clear steps people can take between meetings, so progress continues outside the session room.

How these approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on making the session about the client’s experience, with the therapist reflecting and listening to help people clarify what matters to them. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through confusing emotions or big life decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing anger with concrete skills to practice between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships. Those skills can reduce impulsive reactions and help people respond more calmly in heated moments.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match goals, preferences, and what’s happening in daily life. That way sessions stay focused and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions resemble in-person meetings and work well for skill practice and real-time conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support shorter updates, between-session check-ins, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain momentum between appointments.
