About Jennifer

Jennifer Brown, LICSW, is licensed in Massachusetts and has 10 years of clinical experience. She works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, depression, addictions, trauma and related issues using the approaches she describes: attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness practices.

Jennifer spent part of her career in psychiatric emergency rooms and on inpatient psychiatric units before focusing on outpatient therapy. She draws on that background when assessing risk and stabilizing people in crisis. Her work includes both individual sessions and couples-focused work aimed at changing communication habits.

She emphasizes communication as a practical lever in relationships. Jennifer helps people notice how different perspectives shape reactions and guides them in trying new ways to talk and connect. She uses CBT and DBT skills when patterns of thinking or intense emotions get in the way.

Attachment-based ideas and client-centered listening shape how she understands relationship struggles and family patterns. Mindfulness tools are offered to help with stress, anxiety, and impulses that feel hard to control. She integrates approaches rather than following a single method.

Jennifer also lists additional focuses such as adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, domestic violence, infidelity, veteran and armed forces issues, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, and women’s issues. She works with grief, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, social anxiety, ADHD, eating concerns, anger, and self-esteem problems.

Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How therapeutic approaches translate to remote sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how patterns from early relationships affect current connections. It focuses on increasing awareness of needs and how people signal or respond to them, which can help with relationship and parenting challenges.

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person’s lead and helps them name what matters, which can reduce defensiveness and improve communication in couples or family conversations.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and stress by practicing new skills between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jennifer will review goals, preferences, and symptoms and recommend which strategies to try first. This decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

The biography does not specify which remote session types are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports practicing skills at home and bringing real-life situations into conversation during sessions.
