About Jenny
Jenny Collier is a licensed clinical social worker in Kentucky who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and trauma. She supports those coping with low self-esteem, motivation struggles, sleep and eating concerns, and parenting challenges. Her approach is warm and down-to-earth and aimed at practical steps parents can use day to day.
Jenny sees clients as experts in their own lives and builds on existing strengths. She listens first, then offers tools drawn from evidence-based approaches to reduce symptoms and increase calm.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on skills people can try between meetings, so progress is noticeable in real life. With 11 years of experience, Jenny blends straightforward talk with active coaching. She uses mindfulness and behavior-focused techniques to manage strong emotions.
She also draws on acceptance-focused methods to help people make space for difficult thoughts while moving toward what matters to them. She often uses motivational interviewing to boost readiness for change and DBT strategies to teach emotion and distress tolerance skills. Those methods are useful for issues like anxiety, relationship strain, anger, and coping with big life changes.
People working through parenting strain, ADHD challenges, eating or sleep difficulties, or recovery from trauma will find practical strategies to try at home. Jenny aims to make therapy understandable and doable, with clear goals and steps to measure progress.

Online approaches that teach skills and calm
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on choosing actions that match personal values and can help with anxiety, motivation, and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together. It teaches straightforward strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating struggles.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers clear skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. It includes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal techniques that help with strong anger, relationship strain, and overwhelming stress.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they try methods and adjust the plan so it fits the person’s life and parenting needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face without travel. Phone sessions or live chat can fit into a work break or a child’s nap time and may use less bandwidth. Text-based messaging is handy for brief check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while managing a busy schedule.
