Jennifer Lawrence, LPC

Jennifer Lawrence is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, addiction concerns, and life changes. She works with adults and youth on issues such as self-esteem, sleep problems, anger, career decisions, relationships, and ADHD. Her approach centers on listening and partnering with clients to set goals that make sense for their lives.

She grew up in rural Virginia and often describes herself as someone who has always liked to help others. Her background includes work in educational settings and a residential treatment facility, where she provided academic, career, and mental health counseling. That variety of settings informs her practical, down-to-earth style.

Jennifer uses a person-centered stance at the core of her work. She combines that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed techniques to tailor sessions to each person. Sessions focus on identifying motivation, learning the steps needed to reach goals, and practicing new skills between meetings.

Her training includes an undergraduate degree in psychology, a Master of Education in Higher Education Administration, and a Master of Science in Rehabilitation Counseling. She also holds a Certification in Rehabilitation Counseling, which emphasizes support for people with chronic illnesses and disabilities.

Outside of work she enjoys kettlebell workouts, travel, and time with family and friends. Jennifer values clear, collaborative goal setting and supports clients as they take practical steps toward change.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Jennifer blends a person-centered approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her online work. Client-Centered Therapy means she starts by listening and respecting each person's priorities so goals come from the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with practical strategies for mood, sleep, anxiety, and behavior. Motivational Interviewing focuses on building motivation for change by exploring a person's own reasons and strengths.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and life context, and then suggest ways to proceed. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions relevant and focused on real steps forward.

Session logistics should fit daily life, such as shorter check-ins around work breaks or planning skills practice between meetings. The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to keep consistent appointments and bring momentum to goals without requiring long travel times.
