About Jennifer
Dr. Jennifer Todd is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 24 years of experience. She helps adults who are juggling work, parenting, and the everyday strain of relationships. Her main concerns include stress, anxiety, self-esteem, career questions, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. Jennifer encourages clients to draw on their own strengths while exploring new ways of coping and deciding next moves.
Her approach blends Client-Centered work with Cognitive Behavioral techniques and Mindfulness practice. That means listening first, then testing small changes in thought and behavior, and practicing attention skills that reduce reactivity. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused ideas to help people notice and name their feelings during difficult conversations.
Jennifer has worked across community and professional settings for more than two decades. This experience informs her work with people facing parenting strain, career transitions, grief, trauma, and addictive patterns. She also supports concerns linked to attachment, adoption and foster care backgrounds, aging and caregiver stress.
People meet her for short-term coaching-style work or longer therapy focused on deeper patterns. Her sessions tend to be practical and paced to fit real life demands. To begin, she asks a few simple questions to clarify goals and set the first steps.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel understood and can find their own answers. Online sessions still center on that same listening and on setting goals that matter at home or work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and habits into specific patterns to change. In an online visit CBT is used to set small behavioral experiments and coping strategies that can be practiced between sessions.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name feelings, then look at how those feelings affect behavior. Doing this work online can make it easier to bring real-life examples from home into the session for direct discussion.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice can shift as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits can make regular work on goals more manageable while keeping the focus on real-life changes.
