About Jennifer

Jennifer Kind is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oregon with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who are worn down by old patterns - feeling stuck, ashamed, or overwhelmed - and helps them notice what keeps those patterns in place. Jennifer uses a relaxed, collaborative style and keeps sessions grounded with curiosity and warmth.

Her work begins with building awareness of the thoughts and reactions that repeat in daily life. From there she helps people make small shifts that lead to different responses over time. She draws on mindfulness and cognitive strategies to change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits.

Jennifer blends several evidence-informed approaches to match each person’s needs. Attachment perspectives guide how relationships and early experiences shape current patterns. Client-centered principles keep the conversation focused on the person’s goals and values. She also uses elements of DBT skills and mindfulness to help with emotion regulation and stress.

Her training includes a Master of Arts in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies and certification as a Daring Way™ facilitator. Jennifer describes her sessions as collaborative, curious, and often lightened with humor while still addressing serious concerns.

People come to her for a range of issues, including relationship troubles, codependency, anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD-related challenges, and life transitions. She aims to help clients build self-compassion, strengthen boundaries, and find more agency in day-to-day life.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Jennifer uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and supports building healthier connection habits.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which keeps the work focused on the client's goals and experience. That means sessions are driven by what the person wants to change and by their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jennifer collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She will check in and adjust the plan as progress unfolds so the work stays useful and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into their day, require less travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can make it simpler to maintain momentum between appointments and to practice skills in real-life settings.
