About Jennifer

Jennifer Garvin is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Indiana with 11 years of experience. She works directly with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship concerns. Her approach is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood from the start.

Jennifer uses Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral techniques to address patterns that keep people stuck. She helps clients notice how past relationships affect current reactions and then practices new ways of relating and coping.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps that can be used between meetings. People describe her style as communicative and respectful, with an emphasis on collaboration. She invites clients to help shape the plan and to give feedback about what is or isn’t working.

That shared decision-making guides the pace and focus of therapy. Her caseload has included concerns such as trauma and abuse, addiction, parenting and family stress, attachment issues, and compassion fatigue. Jennifer also supports people dealing with grief, body image, codependency, separation, and aging-related challenges.

Therapy is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the therapist’s availability.

How Jennifer’s Approaches Work Online

Jennifer uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people notice repeated reactions in relationships and practice new ways of connecting that feel safer and more satisfying.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening carefully and reflecting back what matters to the client. That creates space for people to decide their own priorities and move at a pace that fits them.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Jennifer will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest approaches that could help. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan if something isn’t working, so the work feels collaborative rather than fixed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep consistent work on goals.
