Jennie Kozlik, LISW

Jennie Kozlik is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) who focuses on person-centered care. She uses everyday language in sessions and aims to help people build confidence and practical coping skills. Jennie draws on ten years of clinical experience to guide people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, depression, and bipolar concerns.

She earned an Associate of Arts in human services, a Bachelor of Social Work from Youngstown State University, and a Master of Social Science Administration from Case Western Reserve University. Her background includes work with young people beginning at age 13, inpatient hospital settings, and community mental health agencies. Those varied roles shaped a pragmatic approach to therapy.

Jennie blends several evidence-based techniques to match each person’s needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, motivational interviewing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Sessions focus on identifying strengths, setting real goals, and practicing skills between meetings. The therapist emphasizes collaboration and invites clients to weigh in on what feels helpful.

She also supports people facing caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image issues, and aging and geriatric issues. Jennie aims to make sessions useful for everyday life with clear, manageable steps.

People who choose her can expect straightforward conversation, skill-building, and a focus on resilience. She works in Ohio and conducts video telehealth sessions, helping clients fit therapy into busy routines.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Jennie uses several evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them for video sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear communication skills, which can help with intense emotions and relationship strain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters most and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited over time so methods can be adjusted as needs change.

Video telehealth can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for consistent check-ins. If you prefer different session options, confirm what is currently offered before booking. The focus is on practical help that fits daily routines and supports steady progress.
