About Jennifer

Jennifer Brown is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), a clinical social work license that allows independent practice. She earned her Master’s degree from Columbia University in New York, NY, and began her clinical work in high-acuity settings, including psychiatric emergency rooms and inpatient psychiatric units. Over time she transitioned to outpatient work and has provided outpatient therapy for the past nine years.

She brings extensive experience working with both individuals and couples, and places strong emphasis on improving communication as a core pathway to healthier relationships. Jennifer has worked with a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, relationship challenges, gender-related issues, and parenting and co-parenting questions. Her background in acute psychiatric care informs her ability to assess risk and navigate complex presentations.

Jennifer uses an eclectic, tailored approach rather than a one-size-fits-all model. She integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic techniques to meet each person or partnership where they are. Having worked with couples and families for many years, she values how differing interpretations of the same event can shape interactions, and she aims to provide an unbiased, thoughtful perspective that supports meaningful change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship conflict. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns influence present-day connections and can be useful for couples, families, and people working through intimacy or attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jennifer collaborates with each person or couple to identify which strategies fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time as progress is made.

Online therapy with Jennifer can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, coordinate sessions across locations, and access support when it is most needed, while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to each client's life and goals.
