About Jenny
Jenny Printz is a licensed marriage and family therapist who uses practical, systems-oriented care to help families and parents. She draws on nine years of experience in Washington to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or parenting challenges. Jenny keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what a family or parent can actually do next.
She trained at Seattle Pacific University and has additional certification in Medical Family Therapy from the same school.
Background and approach
Jenny pays attention to the different systems around a person - home, school, medical care - so she can see how those parts interact and cause strain or support. That perspective helps when problems involve more than one person or area of life. Jenny often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, practical steps that lead to real progress. Together these methods aim to reduce symptoms and build stronger routines at home. In sessions she works with issues like parenting, blended family concerns, family of origin problems, attachment questions, autism and ADHD, caregiving stress, grief, trauma, addictions, sleep and eating problems, and anger or self-esteem struggles.
She also supports people facing career changes, chronic illness, or the stress that comes with major life transitions. Her approach is collaborative and goal oriented. Jenny helps people name what matters, set realistic goals, and try small experiments between sessions to see what works.
The emphasis is on clear steps families can take to feel better and function more smoothly.
How Jenny’s Approaches Work Online
Jenny uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach often focuses on concrete steps and homework that translate well to online sessions. Solution-Focused Therapy is also part of her work and centers on identifying small, practical changes and building on existing strengths to create forward movement.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She talks with the client or family about their goals and preferences, and together they choose techniques that feel like a good fit. The plan can shift over time based on what is helpful and achievable for the family.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy families and parents. Video calls let participants see each other and work through interactions, phone sessions are useful when video isn’t possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can support short check-ins or between-session coaching. These options help people keep continuity of care when schedules or mobility make in-person visits difficult, while still focusing on clear, actionable steps for home life.
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.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
