About Jennifer
Jennifer Roney is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Services Provider designation in Tennessee. She draws on 11 years of recent experience to help people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or stuck in unhealthy patterns. Jennifer works with individuals facing issues like trauma, low self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, codependency, and the strain of caregiving.
Her approach is practical and down-to-earth. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to challenge unhelpful thinking. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice values and take small steps toward them. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills you can use between meetings.
Jennifer has a background in community mental health and has worked in settings that included individual and group therapy. That background shaped a straightforward style that balances listening with useful tools. She aims to help people build emotional regulation and healthier ways of connecting with others.
In session she helps clients with stress management, sleep struggles, addiction concerns, grief, parenting strain, and mood disorders. She also addresses attachment-related wounds, abandonment issues, and body image concerns. The work often includes learning coping skills, improving communication, and practicing new habits.
To begin she asks people to name one or two reachable goals. From there she tailors therapy using approaches like CBT, ACT, and attachment-focused ideas. Jennifer encourages small, steady steps that fit into a busy life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then take actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and getting unstuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to change mood and behavior, which can help with depression, anxiety, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people build safer ways of relating, which can be helpful for codependency, abandonment wounds, and intimacy issues.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, what has or hasn't helped in the past, and how you prefer to work. Together you decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as you go so the work fits your needs.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also make it simpler to practice skills between sessions and bring real-life examples back to discuss. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to an online setting to keep sessions focused and goal-oriented.
