Jennifer Reed-Grimmett, LPC

Jennifer Reed-Grimmett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, or major life changes. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps that help people cope better day to day. Jennifer aims to help clients feel heard, validated, and more able to handle daily demands.

She listens first to understand each person’s concerns and goals. Early sessions may feel slow while she learns your story, but she also offers calming exercises and short-term coping tools to ease symptoms quickly. Over time she and the client work toward longer-term changes that fit the person’s life and values.

Jennifer describes her style as warm, engaged, and nonjudgmental. She acts like a coach and teammate, offering concrete tools and plain language rather than jargon. Her work includes support for relationship issues, parenting concerns, family conflict, grief, compassion fatigue, and problems with sleep, anger, or self-esteem.

Her background includes around 24 years of counseling experience and earlier training in criminal justice and law enforcement. That experience informs her approach with people who have dealt with trauma, addictions, or interaction with legal systems. She blends approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered techniques.

Jennifer invites people who are ready to try making changes to complete the matching steps on the site and schedule according to availability. She aims to partner with each person to find practical ways to feel better now and build skills for the future.

How therapy methods translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and take action based on their values rather than getting stuck in anxiety or avoidance. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change patterns that fuel depression, anxiety, or low self-esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, relationship strain, and mood instability.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust the focus and techniques as progress is made, so the plan matches what helps you most.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins between obligations, avoiding travel time, or using a phone when video would be difficult. Licensed professionals can still teach practical skills, guide calming exercises, and work through thoughts and feelings effectively using remote sessions when those options are available.
