About Jennifer
Jennifer Fishman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 17 years of experience. She draws on a background in adult education and counseling to help people identify their strengths and take practical steps forward. Jennifer focuses on clear, usable skills that people can try between sessions. She aims to make therapy a collaborative, down-to-earth process.
Before counseling, she worked as an educator in colleges and business schools. That experience shaped how she teaches people about themselves. In therapy she often explains approaches so clients can practice them on their own. This helps people feel more in control of everyday problems.
Jennifer uses a mix of approaches depending on each person’s needs. She often uses Client-Centered methods to listen and build trust, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused and Existential ideas when they fit the client’s situation.
She helps people with stress, anxiety, anger, self esteem concerns, career issues, and coping with life changes. Other focus areas include addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief, parenting strains, trauma and mood concerns like bipolar and depression. Sessions are presented in a straightforward way so people can use what they learn quickly.
People who like an educational, practical style tend to fit well with her approach. Jennifer encourages small experiments and steady progress. To begin, follow the platform steps to match and schedule a session.
