About Jenna

Jenna Auxier is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Kentucky with nine years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and concerns such as ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Jenna uses straightforward, question-based first sessions to learn what matters most to each person. She asks about goals and daily life, and invites questions in return. Early meetings focus on building a working relationship and agreeing on practical next steps.

After those first sessions she helps people create a treatment plan that fits their goals. That plan usually includes skills to try between meetings. Jenna describes the work as team-based: she and the person meet regularly and adjust goals together as progress is made.

Her approach includes cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking and practical strategies from solution-focused methods. She also draws on client-centered listening and motivational interviewing to support decision making. Mindfulness techniques are used when helpful for managing stress and anxiety.

People who come for help can expect clear questions, simple tools to practice, and an emphasis on concrete steps. Jenna commonly supports adults dealing with life changes, parenting stress, grief, fertility and adoption concerns, caregiver strain, and work-related exhaustion. She conducts sessions in English and works from Kentucky.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions

Jenna commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused methods to guide her work. CBT involves identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and testing small changes to see what helps, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and parenting stress. Solution-focused work centers on specific, practical goals and on building steps you can try between meetings to move toward those goals.

She also draws on client-centered listening to understand what matters to each person and on motivational interviewing to support decisions and change. Choosing an approach is collaborative; she will help you decide what fits based on your needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust methods as you go.

The therapist's profile does not list which session formats are currently offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and letting people join from wherever they are at the time. Licensed professionals can also adapt techniques used in person for remote meetings so you get practical tools to use between sessions.
