About Jennifer
Jennifer Reed-Grimmett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, sleep problems, grief, and major life changes. She speaks plainly and aims to provide calming exercises and short-term steps that can make a difference early in therapy. Her approach is warm and direct, and she invites clients to set goals while she offers guidance and tools to reach them.
Jennifer listens first to learn what matters most to each person. She spends time understanding a client’s history and current struggles before suggesting strategies. Early sessions often include practical exercises to reduce immediate distress and improve daily functioning.
Over a 24-year career Jennifer has worked with concerns such as trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy issues, depression, addictions, anger, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people coping with ADHD, bipolar disorder, chronic pain or illness, and many forms of loss and adjustment.
Her style blends client-centered conversation with goal-focused techniques. She uses methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts, build new habits, and strengthen emotional connection. Sessions aim to leave people feeling understood and with concrete steps to try between visits.
Clients often find her plain-spoken, caring, and motivating. Jennifer describes herself as non-judgmental and involved, and she encourages honest talk so she can tailor support. To begin, she asks people to share what they hope to change or improve so work in therapy stays practical and focused.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It helps with anxiety, stress, sleep troubles, and getting unstuck by teaching simple exercises for everyday use. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is practical for insomnia-related routines, mood struggles, and building habits that support better sleep and daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Jennifer will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their situation and goals. That process is collaborative - she listens, suggests techniques, and adjusts based on what helps in real life.
Confirm current session options before booking to know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use written exercises, coaching tools, and skill practice between sessions to improve sleep and reduce stress without changing their routine dramatically.
