Jennifer Chebro , LCSW

Jennifer Chebro is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, and a wide range of life changes. She works with adults and children from diverse backgrounds and takes a practical, compassionate approach to reducing symptoms and strengthening coping skills. She emphasizes that clients are not to blame for the challenges they face and focuses on building self-esteem, healthy coping strategies, and assertive communication that helps people get their needs met in constructive ways.

In sessions she begins by identifying what each person wants to change and then collaborates on clear, achievable goals. She supports clients through doubt and difficulty, staying alongside them as they develop the ability to respond to stress rather than react to it. Her clinical work includes counseling for depression, anxiety, domestic violence survivors, trauma, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief, and many other issues that affect everyday functioning.

Jennifer offers telehealth counseling and is a certified telehealth counselor, which allows clients to engage in care from home through remote sessions. She holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and earned her degree from the University of Connecticut School of Social Work with a method concentration in mental health and substance abuse. She invites people to begin a collaborative journey toward greater resilience and well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer Chebro integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy into her online practice. ACT focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that support a meaningful life - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating that form early in life and affect current relationships, helping people address trust, intimacy, and connection issues.

She approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that finding the right therapeutic method is part of the work. Jennifer will discuss options with each person, tailor techniques to individual needs and goals, and adjust the approach over time so therapy fits the client's preferences and circumstances.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and needs. These remote options make it easier to access licensed professionals and maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
