About Jennifer
Jennifer Fishman is a licensed counselor with a broad background in both education and clinical practice. She holds LPC and LCPC credentials and brings 17 years of experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and life change. She writes in plain, direct terms and focuses on practical ways to cope and move forward.
Before counseling, Jennifer worked as an adult educator in colleges and business schools. That work shaped how she teaches skills in sessions.
Background and approach
She helps people notice strengths and learn tools they can use after a session ends. Sessions are guided by what each person needs in the moment. Jennifer draws on client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in front of her.
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thought patterns and DBT strategies to manage strong emotions. When anger, grief, or life transitions feel overwhelming, she offers clear steps to reduce reactivity and build steady routines. She encourages practical experiments between sessions so people can see what works in daily life.
Her style is straightforward, with an emphasis on learning and self-awareness. Jennifer also supports concerns related to addiction, intimacy, parenting, career stress, and LGBT issues. She aims to help people build skills they can carry forward, not just talk about problems.
The focus is on small, real changes that add up over time.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy puts the person's concerns at the center of each session and helps the therapist follow what matters most to the client. It supports self-exploration and practical problem solving, which works well over video or phone. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it often involves short exercises and homework that are easy to assign and review in online sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills; skills coaching and practice can be reinforced through messaging and live chat between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to pick methods that match their goals and day-to-day needs. That could mean trying CBT exercises for a few weeks, adding DBT skill practice for intense emotions, or shifting to a more client-centered pace depending on how things unfold.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls are good for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, skill reminders, and brief coaching between scheduled sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping momentum between appointments.
