About Jenna

Jenna Auxier is an LCSW who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. She supports those coping with life changes, grief, trauma, parenting challenges, and relationship or family concerns. Jenna also works with issues like ADHD, career stress, compassion fatigue, and fertility or pregnancy-related worries.

Jenna keeps the first sessions simple and practical. She asks questions to understand each person’s situation and invites questions in return. Building a trusting working relationship comes first, and she collaborates with clients to set clear goals.

Background and approach

Her approach is flexible. Jenna uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work when useful. She guides clients in learning skills to use between sessions and adapts methods to each person’s needs.

Jenna brings nine years of clinical experience and holds a Kentucky licensed clinical social worker credential - LCSW. She aims to make therapy feel like teamwork, with both people actively involved in progress. Practical issues such as cost and scheduling are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online via video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Practical approaches for online parenting and life challenges

Client-Centered Therapy is about focusing on each person’s experience and building a respectful, collaborative relationship. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort their priorities and decide next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It offers concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change unhelpful patterns in daily life.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These skills can help with stress, parenting moments, and trauma recovery.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try tools in early sessions, and adjust methods based on what fits each person’s goals and preferences. Treatment planning is collaborative and paced to the client.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. These formats make it easier to schedule around busy family lives, work, and caregiving duties. They also let clients practice skills in real time and check in between sessions when needed.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
