About Jennifer

Jennifer Roney is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Mental Health Services Provider designation (LPC-MHSP) in Tennessee. She has 11 years of experience and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and related concerns.

She focuses on practical strategies people can use between sessions. Those strategies address things like coping with life changes, managing strong emotions, and improving sleep. She also helps with relationship and communication problems that feed frustration and resentment.

Jennifer uses several evidence-informed approaches in session. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify values and take action despite difficult feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and relationships.

Her background includes work in community mental health settings and experience with trauma, parenting concerns, grief, and addiction-related issues. That experience informs a practical style that focuses on skills, patterns, and small changes that add up over time.

Clients can expect a steady, straightforward style that emphasizes tools they can practice day to day. Sessions include talking through recent problems, experimenting with new ways of responding, and building habits that reduce reactive anger and ongoing stress.

To start, the usual steps are a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session so goals and next steps can be discussed.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Jennifer commonly draws on CBT and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing small changes that lead to different emotional responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take committed action even when difficult feelings are present. Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her approach and looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and connections.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She works collaboratively with clients to try suitable methods and adjust them based on goals and preferences. Initial sessions are used to identify what problems matter most and what approaches feel most useful for real-life change.

The biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy can be scheduled around work or parenting demands. Many people find that working remotely helps them practice new skills in their everyday environment and keeps momentum between appointments.
