About Jennifer
Jennifer Ladd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee who helps people facing anger, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, and stress. She supports people dealing with trauma, parenting concerns, ADHD, addiction, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Her tone is warm and straightforward, focused on practical steps and steady listening.
She uses a conversational, interactive style in sessions. Jennifer listens for the deeper reasons behind behavior and feelings.
Background and approach
She blends direct talk with reflective listening to help people notice patterns and try small changes. Her methods draw on cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-informed work, and client-centered principles. She adapts plans to match each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method.
That means sessions can include skill practice, values-based goals, or exploring past relationships that shape current reactions. Jennifer has worked over a decade as a mental health therapist and has experience offering individual and group work. Her background includes focused training in trauma-informed methods for post-traumatic stress concerns.
She aims to help people build coping skills, reduce emotionally driven reactions, and strengthen relationships with themselves and others. People who choose her often want a practical, compassionate approach. Jennifer emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and steady support while clients try new ways of handling stressful situations.
She invites those ready to make changes to take manageable steps toward calmer, clearer responses.

Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and build small habits that align with those values. It can reduce avoidance and help with anxiety, anger, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to change feelings and reactions; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing strong emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current expectations and reactions, and it can help with trust, intimacy-related issues, and chronic interpersonal patterns.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and past experiences. Together they set priorities and try approaches that fit, adjusting methods as needed to find what helps most.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for full conversations and skill practice, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can help with quick check-ins, and messaging supports shorter reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and keep momentum while working on coping skills and behavior changes.
