Jennifer Kordell , LICSW

Jennifer Kordell, LICSW, is a licensed clinical social worker who brings a warm, direct, and patient presence to therapy. She centers sessions on the individual - listening first and supporting clients from wherever they are in life. Her person-centered approach trusts that clients know their own experiences best and focuses on strengthening the skills and resources they already possess while working toward meaningful goals.

Jennifer has experience working with the aging population and frequently supports people navigating depression and anxiety. She also helps clients address stress, grief, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, career questions, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas of focus include body image, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, control issues, feelings of emptiness, family difficulties, forgiveness, guilt and shame, hospice and end-of-life counseling, loneliness, life purpose, financial stress, narcissism, and self-love.

Jennifer holds a Master of Social Work and her LICSW credential, which means she is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker able to provide clinical services independently. She is comfortable connecting through video, phone, or live chat to meet clients in the way that feels most accessible to them. Her style aims to be supportive and collaborative, helping clients move at a pace that feels right.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer uses a mix of client-centered work and evidence-informed skills to support people through life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and building a trusting relationship - it helps when someone needs a supportive space to explore feelings, values, and personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a practical approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact; it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching specific strategies to reframe thinking and change patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Jennifer treats that as a collaborative process. She works with clients to tailor methods to individual needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so therapy remains useful and relevant.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with communication. These options let clients engage from home or another convenient location, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and choose the format that best supports their progress with licensed professionals and therapists.
