About Jennifer
Jennifer Manning is a licensed clinical social worker who centers therapy on connection and clear, practical help. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns, and ADHD. Jennifer speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on what is useful now.
She brings 13 years of direct clinical experience in mental health. That background includes work with mood and panic symptoms, postpartum and post-traumatic stress, and complicated life changes such as divorce and blended family issues.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing fertility challenges and first responder stress. Jennifer uses a mix of methods to match a person’s needs. She pulls from client-centered work to keep the conversation focused on the person's perspective.
Mindfulness tools are offered for grounding and reducing anxious racing thoughts. Trauma-focused techniques are used when past hurt is getting in the way of daily life. Sessions aim to identify strengths, name patterns, and build practical skills.
Parents can expect concrete tools for communication and managing parenting strain. For someone with attention or impulse concerns, sessions focus on real-life strategies rather than abstract concepts. Jennifer works with each person to set clear goals and track progress.
She encourages steady steps and small experiments so change feels manageable. Her approach is collaborative, straightforward, and tuned to everyday demands.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-centered therapy places the person’s goals and experience at the center of sessions. Online sessions let the therapist listen closely, reflect what matters, and shape the work around each person’s priorities. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple grounding and breathing exercises that translate well to video or phone, helping reduce anxiety and improve focus in day-to-day life. Trauma-focused therapy targets the ways past harm affects current behavior and relationships, using structured talk and coping skills to reduce distress and increase safety in everyday settings.Choosing the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited over time so the plan evolves with progress and changing circumstances.
Online formats offer practical benefits for people juggling busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing facial cues matters. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to send quick updates, ask questions between sessions, or use therapy during brief breaks. These options create flexibility so therapy can fit into work, family life, and recovery at a steady pace.
