About Jennifer

Jennifer Stratton is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health (LPC-MH) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She practices in Minnesota and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, anger, bipolar issues, and ADHD.

Jennifer focuses on the concrete ways isolation, shame, and impulsivity affect daily life. She pays attention to how those patterns show up at work, at home, and in relationships. Sessions are practical and direct, with an emphasis on building coping skills that can be used between meetings.

She has experience supporting first responders and people dealing with codependency, caregiver stress, and substance-related problems. Jennifer also addresses concerns such as seasonal mood shifts, intellectual disability considerations, and feelings of loneliness or guilt. Her work includes helping people navigate life changes and recover from traumatic experiences.

Her practice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients develop resilience and healthier coping habits. The therapist and client set clear goals and measure progress in ways that make sense to the person in therapy. Jennifer works with adults from diverse backgrounds and belief systems.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations about what is causing distress and specific steps to reduce it. The focus is on practical tools for managing anger, impulsivity, and mood problems, and on strengthening everyday routines that support emotional balance.

How sessions work

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is behavioral skills work, which teaches clear, repeatable actions for managing strong emotions and impulsive reactions. This helps with anger, mood swings, and stress by giving tools to use when situations escalate.

Another approach emphasizes processing traumatic experiences in paced, structured ways so memories and reactions feel less overwhelming. That kind of work supports people coping with past abuse, post-traumatic stress, or chronic shame. A third element is relapse prevention and support for substance-related issues, which centers on identifying triggers and building day-to-day strategies to reduce risk of return to harmful patterns.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your needs, goals, and preferences and try methods that fit your situation. Adjustments happen as you notice what helps and what does not, so treatment evolves with your progress.

If you prefer remote sessions, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, allow brief check-ins during the workday, and reduce the need to be on camera for every visit. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches so you get practical tools that work in everyday settings.
