About Jennifer
Jennifer Fishman is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and also holds the LCPC credential. She brings 17 years of counseling experience and a background as an adult educator to her work. She focuses on helping people notice strengths they may have missed and on practical steps they can take next.
Her earlier career in colleges and business schools shaped a teaching style that remains in sessions. She explains tools as she uses them so clients can try them between meetings. That practical, skill-building approach is part coaching and part therapy.
Jennifer adapts to each person's needs. She draws from Mindfulness Therapy to help people slow down and notice patterns. She uses Client-Centered approaches to follow a clients lead and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.
Sessions often include learning new coping strategies for stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, addiction issues, parenting strain, career questions, and life changes. Jennifer aims to help people develop tools they can use on their own.
Her work is straightforward and practical. She helps clients build an "arsenal" of skills and to see different perspectives on recurring problems. People who want clear techniques and collaborative, nonjudgmental guidance may find her style useful.
How mindfulness and practical therapy work online
Jennifer integrates Mindfulness Therapy by helping people notice their thoughts and bodily signals without judgment, which can reduce reactivity and improve focus. She pairs that with Client-Centered Therapy, which means she follows the client's concerns and priorities rather than imposing a set plan. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thought patterns and try small experiments to change behavior and mood.
Choosing an approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to figure out which combination of mindfulness, client-centered listening, and CBT fits their goals and preferences. That process may shift as needs change.
Confirm the current session options before booking because specific formats are not listed here. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as avoiding travel time or fitting a meeting into a lunch break. It also allows for shorter check-ins when that is useful. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, breathing practices, and behavioral tasks to work well in an online setting while helping people practice tools between sessions.
These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
