About Jennifer
Jennifer Roney is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Services Provider designation (LPC, LPC-MHSP) practicing in Tennessee. She brings 11 years of counseling experience and a background in community mental health to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She is direct and practical in sessions, helping clients talk through hard situations and take small, useful steps forward.
Her work often focuses on attachment, trauma, and identity issues that come up after adoption or foster care experiences. She also supports people working through caregiving stress, grief, chronic illness, and the everyday pressures of parenting and career demands. Sessions aim to strengthen coping skills and improve day-to-day functioning.
Jennifer uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build action, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and Attachment-Based Therapy to repair relational wounds. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and client-centered listening are part of the toolbox when appropriate.
Her background includes extensive community mental health work and experience with trauma-focused methods. That experience informs a steady, practical style in sessions that combines emotional support with specific strategies. Jennifer helps people set realistic goals and track progress over time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small, meaningful steps toward those values. It helps with anxiety, depression, and motivation by teaching ways to act despite difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change them, useful for anxiety, sleep issues, and mood struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships affect current trust and closeness, and it helps people rebuild safer ways of relating after adoption, foster care, or other disruptions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they try approaches and adjust based on what feels useful and realistic for day-to-day life.
Many people find online therapy makes it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules. It can reduce travel time and allow sessions during a work break or between errands. Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking to see what works for you. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to an online setting by using practical exercises, behavioral homework, and in-session skills practice to keep progress moving forward.
