About Jennifer
Jennifer Spinner is a licensed clinical social worker who emphasizes practical, person-focused care. She uses straightforward listening and collaboration to help people improve relationships and everyday well-being. Jennifer holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and brings 25 years of counseling experience to her work.
She centers therapy on the client's immediate concerns and goals. Sessions are built around what matters most to the person in front of her. That may include stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, self-esteem, parenting challenges, addiction, sleep and eating concerns, or coping with life changes such as health issues or career transitions.
Jennifer draws on several well-known approaches to shape treatment. She uses methods that focus on values and acceptance, attention to attachment and relational patterns, and practical, skills-based work to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also incorporates techniques for emotion regulation when needed.
Jennifer’s background includes long experience in clinical settings and private practice. She is a cancer survivor and has personal experience managing significant life stressors, which informs her practical and empathetic style. She emphasizes validation, clear communication, and tailored plans that fit each person’s needs.
Therapy is presented as a collaborative process. Jennifer aims to help clients move through obstacles, reconnect with what matters, and develop realistic steps toward better functioning. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she practices in Florida.
How her approaches guide online therapy
Jennifer often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take small steps toward them, even when tough feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another core method she uses to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different, more effective behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest methods that match those needs. The plan is adjusted over time so it fits what actually helps.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is offering care. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow briefer check-ins when a full in-person visit isn't practical. It can also let people continue steady support during health or mobility challenges. Licensed professionals aim to adapt tools and exercises to the online context so progress continues even when meeting remotely.
