Jennifer Grau-Keyser , LCSW

Jennifer Grau-Keyser is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with 8 years of clinical experience. She provides therapy to children, teens, adults, and families who are coping with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, LGBTQ+ concerns, adjustment difficulties, and behavioral or parenting challenges.

Jennifer has specialized training in working with people who have experienced a wide range of traumatic events including domestic violence - verbal, physical, and sexual abuse - childhood abuse and neglect, sexual violence, combat-related experiences, and natural tragedies. She recognizes that unhealed trauma frequently contributes to chronic stress, anger, depression, anxiety, addictions, health disparities, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties, and she focuses on addressing those downstream effects of trauma.

Her therapeutic stance is client-driven and strengths-based, with an emphasis on trust and a non-biased, non-judgmental relationship. Jennifer draws on a variety of evidence-informed methods and specific trauma-focused interventions to tailor care to each person’s needs, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Solution-Focused strategies, Rational Emotive approaches, Feedback Informed Treatment, and psychoeducation. As an LCSW, she is trained to provide psychotherapy and to collaborate with clients on goals, coping skills, and recovery from complex life challenges.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jennifer uses approaches that help clients build skills and clarify values. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in noticing difficult thoughts and emotions while taking action toward a meaningful life - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and collaboration so clients feel heard and empowered to explore goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and other mood-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Jennifer works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting strategies over time as progress and challenges emerge.

Online therapy offers flexibility to access licensed professionals from home or other locations through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule regular sessions, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and use a mix of synchronous and asynchronous communication to support ongoing work between appointments.
