About Jennifer

Jennifer Roney is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Services Provider designation in Tennessee. She has 11 years of counseling experience and helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and life changes among other concerns.

She works in plain, direct sessions that focus on what is happening now and what can be useful next. Conversations cover coping skills, managing emotions, and practical steps for daily life. Jennifer uses a mix of approaches so sessions can include skill-building, emotion work, and talking through difficult memories.

Her background includes extensive community mental health work and experience with a wide range of concerns. That work informs how she coordinates care and sets goals with people. Jennifer has supported issues related to addiction, grief, intimacy, sleep problems, parenting stress, career strain, ADHD, and bipolar mood concerns.

Therapeutic approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). These approaches are used to teach skills, improve relationships, and reduce distress tied to past events or current pressures.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and practical. Early meetings focus on clear goals and small steps that fit everyday life. If someone is coming from college, starting a job, or feeling behind compared with peers, she helps sort priorities and steady emotions so progress feels manageable.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and choosing actions that match personal values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress about life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with panic, low mood, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships that affect trust, boundaries, and closeness; it can help with intimacy issues and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with brief skills from CBT, then using ACT ideas or attachment work as needs change.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography did not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, work shifts, or caregiving by removing travel time and letting people join from wherever their schedule allows. They also allow for shorter check-ins when life is busy, or longer meetings when more processing is needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets, and skills practice to an online setting so sessions stay focused on real life concerns.
