About Jennifer

Jennifer Reed-Grimmett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and major life changes. She speaks plainly and listens closely to learn what each person needs. Her style is warm, direct, and practical with tools aimed at immediate relief and long-term improvement.

She begins by getting to know your situation and what you'd like to change. Early sessions often focus on feeling calmer and finding short-term strategies to get through hard days. Over time she helps people build skills that support better focus, healthier relationships, and steadier moods.

Jennifer draws on several therapy approaches to match what fits each person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small, meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep problems going. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods guide how she listens and responds in session.

Her background includes about 24 years in counseling and prior experience related to criminal justice. That mix informs her practical, coaching-oriented manner. She also works with issues that affect caregivers and older adults, including aging and geriatric concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English and follow a collaborative plan set by the person seeking help. If the approach or goals need adjusting, she checks in and adapts so therapy stays useful and relevant.

How Jennifer’s approaches guide online work

Jennifer often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take small actions that reflect those values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by focusing on what matters rather than on eliminating every difficult thought or feeling.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT provides concrete skills for changing unhelpful thoughts and building different habits, which can help with mood, sleep, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works together with each person to decide what methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. That collaborative discussion can shift over time as needs change, so plans are adjusted as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options when you book. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full appointment isn't possible. It also lets people use strategies learned in session in their daily routines right away. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt exercises and tools for remote sessions so the work stays practical and focused.
