About Jennifer
Jennifer Linarello is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than two decades of counseling experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life transitions. She also supports those navigating adoption and foster care matters and related attachment and family issues.
Her approach is grounded in strength and rapport. Early sessions often focus on identifying what is already working and where resilience lives. Jennifer uses straightforward conversation, mindfulness exercises, and practical tools so people can try things between sessions.
Jennifer combines client-centered listening with structured approaches when they fit. That can mean using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to manage intense emotions. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused and mindfulness-based work for relationship patterns and body-mind awareness.
Her background includes long experience with trauma, ADHD, addictions, and caregiver stress, alongside common concerns like sleep problems and self-esteem. Jennifer describes her style as genuine, warm, and kind, aiming to make therapy a collaborative space for change.
People who prefer practical steps mixed with compassionate listening may find her style helpful. She works from Indiana and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a collaborative atmosphere. Online sessions using this approach prioritize understanding a person’s goals and building a plan that feels doable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with sleep or concentration.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That shared decision-making helps keep sessions relevant and adjustable as needs change.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and fewer trips to an office, which helps fit care into busy days. Online sessions may also allow for shorter check-ins when that makes sense or reduce the need to be on camera for part of a meeting. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available with this therapist.
