About Jennifer

Jennifer Hornberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical, skills-based therapy. She uses approaches like Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused work to help people manage stress, anxiety, and big life changes. Her style is direct and supportive, with an emphasis on giving clear tools people can use between sessions.

She pays special attention to issues that affect family life and parenting. That includes communication problems, divorce and separation, and family conflict.

Background and approach

She also addresses trauma, grief, postpartum concerns, and caregiver stress with focused strategies that match each person’s needs. Sessions often center on building coping skills, improving communication, and creating small, doable changes. Motivational Interviewing is used to help people find practical reasons to change.

Narrative Therapy can help reframe difficult stories from the past into more useful perspectives. Jennifer takes a straightforward approach to therapy. She listens, then suggests concrete steps and exercises to try at home.

Progress is tracked by what a person is actually able to do differently in daily life. She holds licensure in Missouri as MO LPC 2015040558 and has three years of documented experience. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin a match and schedule sessions, prospective clients follow the site's Start Therapy process and complete a short questionnaire to find the right fit.

Therapeutic approaches and online access

Jennifer often uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach concrete skills for managing strong emotions, reducing reactivity, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT is useful for people dealing with high stress, anger, or mood instability. Mindfulness Therapy is offered to help clients build attention to the present moment and reduce anxiety through simple, practiced awareness techniques.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods based on a person’s goals, history, and preferences. Clients collaborate on a plan and adjust strategies as progress is made, so the approach can change over time to fit what actually helps.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats provide flexibility for parents and caregivers who need to fit sessions around busy schedules. They also make it easier to follow up between visits, try practice exercises, and keep momentum when life gets hectic.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

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.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
