About Jennifer

Jennifer Bassett is a Florida-licensed LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) with 10 years of clinical experience. She is a military veteran who has spent a decade helping people manage anger, addictions, relationship strain, stress, anxiety, grief, and other life changes. Her work also includes supporting clients with parenting concerns and issues that come from family background and family conflict.

Bassett uses straightforward conversation and practical tools in sessions. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and helps them name what is getting in the way. Sessions focus on concrete steps people can try between meetings, not just talk. That can include skill practice for communication, strategies to reduce reactive anger, and ways to handle career or role stress.

Her approach draws on client-centered principles and structured methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing. She also uses narrative ideas to help people see their story differently and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship skills are a focus. These methods are used to address problems like codependency, commitment concerns, substance use, and intimacy-related issues.

Bassett has worked with adolescents in middle and high school settings and has experience related to the family dependency legal system. She also supports people dealing with midlife transitions, questions of life purpose, and challenges connected to military service.

How sessions work

Online approaches and how they fit your goals

Jennifer uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to address everyday problems. Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening and making room for your perspective so you can decide what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches specific skills to change reactions, which is often useful for anger and anxiety.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change and the Gottman Method when relationship skills are central to the work. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, adjusting as progress or challenges appear.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel, and allow for quicker check-ins between longer sessions. The emphasis is on practical, doable steps you can use day to day rather than broad promises about outcomes.
