About Jennifer
Jennifer Morris is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience helping people who face trauma, loss, mood struggles, addiction, and stressful life changes. She speaks directly and kindly, and she helps people take the first steps toward feeling better. Jennifer aims to build a working relationship where a person feels heard and challenged in useful ways.
Her approach focuses on each person as an individual. She listens for strengths, patterns, and stories that shape how someone understands their life.
Background and approach
From there she and the person map out simple, realistic steps to address problems like anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship stress. Jennifer uses narrative ideas alongside client-centered care and practical tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches. She also draws on motivational interviewing techniques when people are unsure about change.
Sessions may involve talking through past events, trying small behavior changes, and practicing new ways of coping with emotions. Her experience includes work in medical and justice settings, with people facing addiction, trauma, grief, and end-of-life concerns. That background informs how she supports people caught in cycles of shame, guilt, or self-blame.
She pays attention to attachment and family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, and blended family challenges when they matter to a person's goals. Jennifer aims for clear, practical plans rather than scripts. She speaks plainly, sets direct goals, and checks progress as people try new strategies.
If someone wants a therapist who will be honest, supportive, and focused on meaningful change, she may be a good fit.

Approaches and how online therapy can help
Jennifer blends Narrative Therapy with Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that are easy to use online. Narrative Therapy helps people notice the stories they tell about themselves and choose different, more helpful meanings. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to a person's needs so work moves at their pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gives clear, practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depressive patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the process collaborative and flexible.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for full sessions and visual connection, while phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
