About Jennifer

Jennifer King is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of clinical experience. She holds licensure in Florida as FL LCSW SW9826 and in New Jersey as NJ LCSW 44SC06166700. Jennifer draws on years of direct practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and other life challenges.

Jennifer keeps sessions straightforward and focused on connection. She believes a strong working relationship matters most and aims to create a space where clients feel heard.

Background and approach

She encourages sharing feelings and building self-awareness through honest conversation. Her approach blends practical strategies with supportive listening. Jennifer uses methods from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify patterns and try new ways of coping.

Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are woven in when helpful to set short-term goals and reduce overwhelm. Jennifer has worked in a range of settings supporting people facing trauma, addiction, mood disorders, and housing instability. That background informs a flexible style that adapts to each person's needs and pace.

She emphasizes small, manageable steps toward change rather than large, abstract goals. Parents and caregivers looking for guidance around parenting, family dynamics, or stress often find her clear, practical manner useful. Jennifer supports people through grief, career transitions, aging concerns, and other life shifts with steady, experience-based care.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy puts the person's experience first. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build trust and understanding. This approach helps when someone needs emotional support and a nonjudgmental space to talk.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors. It is useful for problems like anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks issues into specific patterns that can be changed over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts techniques as progress and preferences become clearer.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes scheduling easier for busy families and individuals. These formats allow for flexible check-ins, shorter focused conversations, or regular weekly sessions depending on what works best. The range of options can help people maintain consistency and stick with therapy while managing day-to-day responsibilities.

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.
