About Jennifer

Jennifer King is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida and New Jersey with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strains, and other life changes. Sessions focus on clear conversation and practical steps people can try between meetings.

King trained with a Master of Social Work from the University of South Florida and has worked across multiple settings. That background includes supporting people dealing with homelessness, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and eating-related concerns. Her experience also covers caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, and veteran and armed forces issues.

Her way of working centers on listening and offering straightforward perspectives. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot patterns and try small experiments that can change thoughts and behavior.

Mindfulness practices and solution-focused strategies are added when helpful, for managing stress, improving coping, and setting short-term goals. Conversations are practical and paced to match each person's needs and schedule.

People who come for help often want relief from daily overwhelm, clearer decisions about relationships or parenting, and ways to manage difficult emotions. King aims to offer steady professional support while helping people identify concrete next steps they can try between sessions.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. In practice this means the therapist reflects concerns, clarifies priorities, and adapts pacing so sessions feel relevant to everyday life. It is useful for emotional support, relationship and family concerns, and deciding next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Online CBT sessions often include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying brief experiments or behavior changes between meetings to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or address eating and substance-related issues.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the issue they're facing. That process can be adjusted over time as needs change.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments into a busy day and keeping momentum when life is hectic. Confirm the current session formats before booking, since specific online options are not listed in the biography. Many people find virtual sessions let them keep consistent contact with a licensed professional while balancing parenting, work, and other responsibilities.
