About Jennifer
Jennifer Grau-Keyser is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting challenges, and issues related to LGBTQ identity. She also supports those facing addiction, grief, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes.
Jennifer takes a straightforward, calm approach in sessions. She listens first, then helps clients set small, usable goals. She focuses on strengths and practical steps parents can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Her style is nonjudgmental and centered on trust. In therapy she draws on several well-known approaches, including acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior strategies, emotionally-focused work, and client-centered care. These methods shape how she helps clients manage emotions, change unhelpful thinking, and improve communication.
Jennifer has eight years of clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns, including trauma from domestic violence and childhood abuse, as well as adjustment after major life events. She has worked with people facing complex situations such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, and blended family adjustments. When working with parents she focuses on realistic, achievable changes that reduce daily strain.
Sessions often include skill practice, problem-solving for routines, and guidance on managing behavioral challenges. The aim is to make small shifts that lead to steadier days and clearer relationships.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep problems going. It often helps with depression, sleep issues, and anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling relationship strain.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients and therapist check in and adjust the plan as progress is made so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls let people meet face to face from wherever they are. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins, brief skill coaching, and follow-up between full sessions. These options help parents and busy people fit therapy into daily life.
