About Jennifer
Jennifer Christensen is a licensed clinical social worker in Utah who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She presents a warm, practical style and focuses on finding workable steps that fit everyday life. Jennifer uses straightforward, goal-oriented methods.
Sessions often look at what is getting in the way now and build small skills to change it. She blends strategies from evidence-based approaches and coaching-style conversations to help people gain momentum.
Background and approach
Her background includes five years in clinical practice and additional years in community social work, school social work, and program development. That mix gives her experience with school-related concerns, psychoeducation, and helping clients navigate systems that affect daily life. Jennifer pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication patterns.
She also supports people dealing with body image, codependency, guilt and shame, isolation, and the aftermath of sexual assault or other trauma. In sessions she may use mindfulness tools, skills training, brief solution-focused coaching, and trauma-focused interventions when appropriate. The aim is practical change - better emotion management, clearer communication, and stronger coping skills.
Jennifer meets people where they are and helps them build steps forward.

Online support
How online approaches like DBT and EMDR work
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, often called DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It breaks skills into short, usable practices people can apply between sessions to reduce reactivity and improve communication. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, uses structured processing to help reduce the hold of painful memories. Therapists guide clients through focused recollection and bilateral stimulation to help lessen distress tied to past events. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation may shift over time as progress is made and priorities change. Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when schedules or geography make in-person visits hard. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging give flexible, brief ways to stay connected between sessions or when a written approach feels easier. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while using DBT skills, EMDR processing, or mindfulness practices in ways that suit each person.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
