About Jennifer

Dr. Jennifer Todd is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Alabama with 24 years of clinical experience who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, career transitions, grief, trauma, addiction, and other life concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes clients' strengths and existing resources, helping people build motivation, confidence, and practical coping skills while addressing issues such as intimacy, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods to match each person's needs, drawing on Internal Family Systems alongside client-centered and cognitive-behavioral techniques to explore internal parts, clarify values, and change unhelpful patterns. Jennifer also integrates emotion-focused and existential perspectives when clients are navigating relationship struggles, identity questions, or meaning-making after loss.

She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. Jennifer frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s experience guides the work.

Prospective clients begin by selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a brief matching questionnaire, and scheduling sessions according to availability; services are offered via subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online care

Jennifer commonly integrates Internal Family Systems, client-centered therapy, and cognitive-behavioral methods to address emotional and practical challenges. Internal Family Systems helps people notice and relate to distinct internal parts that hold feelings, beliefs, or protective strategies, which can be useful for healing trauma, shame, or entrenched patterns. Client-centered therapy prioritizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel understood and able to discover their own solutions during change or transition. Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing skills to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and manage stress.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription. The therapist will work with each client to explore which combination of methods best fits their goals, symptoms, and preferences, adjusting course as needs evolve over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for busy schedules, work across time zones, and accommodate differing communication styles. These options allow clients to engage in therapeutic work from their chosen location and to select the format that supports their comfort and consistency.
