About Jenny

Jenny Henson is an approachable Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on stress and anxiety among other concerns. She speaks plainly and listens closely, helping people name what feels overwhelming and find steps to feel more steady. Her manner is down-to-earth and nonjudgmental, making it easier for worried parents to explain what’s happening and get practical help.

With ten years of professional experience as an LPC, she has worked in school settings and in private practice. That background means she has supported people through grief, depression, trauma, burnout, and relationship strain. Jenny uses clear, straightforward techniques so sessions feel useful and focused rather than confusing.

Her typical approach blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral tools and EMDR when appropriate. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new responses, and process painful memories at a manageable pace. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolbox to build steady habits and motivation.

Jenny has experience with a wide range of concerns, including parenting stress, addiction, ADHD, attachment and abandonment worries, body image, and first responder issues. She aims to be honest about what she can help with and will assist people in finding other resources when needed.

Sessions take a practical, goal-oriented tone. Jenny helps people set small, achievable steps and checks in on progress. The focus is on gaining everyday skills to cope with life's challenges and move toward clearer routines and relationships.

How Jenny Uses Key Approaches Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what is said, and helps people set goals that matter to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful habits and reduce worry. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to process distressing memories and reduce their intensity through structured sessions when that approach fits the person's needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on CBT skills, try EMDR, or use client-centered and mindfulness practices to support coping and resilience.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue progress between in-person visits and practice skills in real-life settings.
