About Jennifer
Jennifer Reed-Grimmett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in West Virginia with 24 years of experience. She offers calm, down-to-earth support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or life changes. Her approach is warm and straightforward and aims to help people feel a little better between sessions as well as over time.
Jennifer listens first to understand what matters to each person. She works together with clients to set goals they choose and to find practical steps that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Sessions may include short calming exercises, coaching-style feedback, and tools to manage strong emotions and improve concentration. Her background includes work related to criminal justice and law enforcement, and she draws on that experience when helping people cope with career stress, compassion fatigue, and trauma. She also supports people facing parenting challenges, relationship problems, and issues related to addiction or chronic illness.
Jennifer is comfortable addressing a wide range of concerns including bipolar disorder, ADHD, and intimacy and attachment issues. Narrative approaches inform how she helps people reframe difficult stories about themselves, while acceptance and cognitive techniques provide ways to change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-based and client-centered methods shape the focus on relationship and the therapeutic alliance.
Jennifer uses language that is plain and practical rather than clinical. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People interested in working together begin by using the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling their first appointment according to availability.

Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches work online
Jennifer combines Narrative Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-based ideas to help people untangle painful stories and find workable steps forward. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from a problem by looking at the stories they tell about their life and relationships. This can be useful for grief, shame, and identity questions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches simple skills for noticing thoughts and feelings without fighting them and then taking actions that match personal values. Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build safer, more satisfying connections.Choosing an approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that seem like a good fit. Sessions adjust over time based on what helps most, and clients are invited to give feedback so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to make therapy fit everyday life. Video allows face-to-face conversation when bandwidth permits, phone calls can be easier when movement or bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility for different schedules, work breaks, or moments when a quick check-in is needed.
