About Jenifer
Jenifer Regennitter is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and codependency. She draws on 25 years of clinical experience and meets each person where they are. Jenifer offers a calm, straightforward style and works with adults from a range of spiritual backgrounds.
Jenifer holds a Master of Science in Education in Counseling and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Western Illinois University. She is credentialed as an IL LCPC and an IA LMHC and has worked at many levels of care since 2000, including residential, inpatient, outpatient, and community mental health settings. That variety informs how she tailors practical steps to a person’s situation.
Her sessions are collaborative. She helps people name goals, notice strengths, and try concrete changes between meetings. Jenifer often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to link thoughts and behaviors, Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear next steps, and Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation grounded in the client’s priorities.
She also brings Trauma-Focused practices and narrative approaches to work through painful events and life stories that keep people stuck. Homework or short exercises may be offered to help new skills take hold outside of sessions. The aim is steady progress toward more joy, calm, and balance.
Jenifer welcomes conversations about faith for those who want that included in counseling. People curious about starting can follow the site’s process to match and schedule a first appointment.
How approach and online work fit together
Jenifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and helps people try small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on practical next steps and what will look different when things improve, which can make online sessions feel action-oriented and efficient.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person’s priorities and pace. Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative - the therapist and client will decide together what feels most useful based on goals, preferences, and what shows progress in early sessions.
The practical benefits of online care can include fitting sessions into a busy day and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep momentum between appointments and to use brief check-ins when that helps progress.
