How her approaches translate to online work
Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including cognitive behavioral methods that break problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teach practical strategies to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. CBT helps people learn coping skills, challenge anxious thoughts, and practice new behaviors that reduce panic and social fear.She also applies structured social skills curricula that focus on step-by-step skill development, role play, and practice. These models support clearer communication and improved social interaction for young people with ADHD or social challenges.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts techniques to fit their needs. She helps decide which strategies to try first and checks progress over time so the plan evolves as things change.
