About Jennifer
Jennifer Reed-Grimmett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in West Virginia with 24 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, addictions, grief, and struggles with self-esteem and intimacy. Her approach aims to help people feel better in the short term while building skills for the future.
Jennifer listens closely to understand what each person needs and hopes to accomplish. Early sessions focus on getting a clear picture of daily challenges and on offering calming exercises and short-term strategies that can help reduce anxiety and improve concentration. She uses plain language and avoids jargon so people can follow practical steps right away.
Over time she blends supportive conversation with active tools to address patterns that keep someone stuck. Jennifer draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to work with emotions, relationships, and behavior. She describes her style as engaging, coach-like, and nonjudgmental while letting clients help set their goals.
She also brings experience from a background in criminal justice, which informs her work with stress and career-related challenges. People who want clear feedback, practical coping techniques, and someone who will listen and respond directly often choose to work with her.
To begin, Jennifer asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so she can learn more about their concerns and goals.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and shifting emotional patterns that keep someone feeling stuck. It helps people name hard-to-reach feelings and change how those feelings affect behavior and relationships.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches how to notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, and to take action that lines up with personal values. This can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current ways of relating and feeling secure. It can help with attachment issues and with changing repeated interaction styles.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jennifer will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are conducted. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life - for example, letting someone have a shorter check-in during a lunch break or avoid travel time. Different approaches can be adapted to remote sessions, and many people find the same practical tools and emotional focus useful when working with licensed professionals online.
