About Jennifer

Jennifer Hogue is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who focuses on practical therapy you can use in day-to-day life. She draws on clear strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the ups and downs that come with big life changes. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth, with straightforward tools rather than jargon.

Jennifer works from Massachusetts and has seven years of clinical experience. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns.

Background and approach

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is part of her toolkit for building emotion regulation and interpersonal skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy shows up when values-based choices can move someone forward. These approaches are mixed to fit each person’s situation.

Jennifer also addresses concerns such as addictions, grief, anger, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. She gives space to talk about intimacy, body image, and attachment issues when those come up. Practical skill-building and small behavior changes are common targets in sessions.

Conversations focus on what matters to the person in front of her, whether the need is coping strategies, clearer communication, or managing symptoms day to day. Sessions can include problem-solving, homework between meetings, and learning new coping skills. Jennifer aims to make therapy a usable part of everyday life.

Clients can expect a calm, patient approach that centers their goals. Jennifer blends empathy with concrete techniques so people leave with things they can try right away. She is available to work with people in English and accepts international clients.

Online therapy with practical, evidence-based methods

Jennifer frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy when clients need concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. These methods aim to teach clear tools that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work during transitions. Practical exercises, skill coaching, and short take-home tasks translate well to remote formats, so people can practice new habits between meetings.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
