About Jennifer
Jennifer Hornberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri. She centers therapy on practical skills and clear communication to help people manage stress, anger, and life transitions. Her approach is calm and direct, aimed at giving straightforward tools someone can use between sessions.
Jennifer draws from a few evidence-informed methods to match what each person needs. She often uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Background and approach
She also works with Solution-Focused and Narrative approaches to help people identify strengths and rewrite unhelpful patterns. Her background includes three years of professional counseling experience working with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and caregiver stress. Jennifer also addresses relationship and family problems, communication difficulties, postpartum and perinatal concerns, and coping with major life changes.
Sessions focus on concrete steps and short-term goals when that fits, or deeper processing for past trauma when that is needed. She helps people practice new ways of responding to anger, manage panic and mood symptoms, and rebuild routines after loss or change. Jennifer welcomes people who want a hands-on, collaborative approach.
She encourages open conversation about what is and isn’t working and adjusts methods based on progress and preferences.

Using practical therapy approaches online
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT skills, focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving how people manage strong feelings like anger. Those skills are taught through clear, practiceable steps that can be used between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention exercises to reduce reactivity and lower anxiety. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and builds momentum for taking small steps toward goals.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, test what feels useful, and adjust methods over time. That means working together to decide whether short-term solution work, skills training, or deeper narrative or trauma-focused work best fits the situation.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or camera use isn’t ideal. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, work between sessions, and shorter updates when a full session isn’t needed. These options make it easier to fit care around work, caregiving, or travel while still using the chosen therapeutic approaches.
