About Jennifer
Jennifer Wickersham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with more than 21 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or relationship strain. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
Jenn uses a client-centered approach that puts each person’s priorities first. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors.
Background and approach
Emotionally-Focused Therapy and mindfulness techniques are available when attention to feelings and present-moment awareness will help. Sessions tend to be goal-focused and collaborative. Jenn works with clients to set clear, achievable steps and practices they can use between meetings.
She emphasizes simple skills for coping, self-soothing, and managing strong emotions like anger. Her background includes work with adults and with families on a range of challenges, plus clinical assessment experience to guide intervention choices. Jenn prefers interventions that are the least restrictive and match each person’s needs.
People often come for help with parenting stress, sleep problems, career pressures, ADHD, or intimacy-related concerns. She also supports those facing complicated family dynamics, grief, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is steady, practical, and focused on moving toward clearer daily routines and improved emotional balance.

How her approaches fit into online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a genuine working relationship. In sessions the therapist follows each person’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps clarify goals and values so steps forward feel meaningful and doable.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying small behavioral experiments, and practicing coping skills between meetings to reduce anxiety and manage anger.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on recognizing and naming feelings, and on improving how people respond to strong emotions. This approach can help when emotional patterns get in the way of relationships or when someone needs clearer ways to express and regulate feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenn collaborates with clients to choose which methods to use based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She will adjust techniques as progress is made so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online formats offer practical options: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not preferred, live chat for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging for brief reflections or between-session support. These choices make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between sessions.
