About Jenna
Jenna Auxier is an LCSW based in Kentucky who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and trauma-related concerns. She brings nine years of clinical experience to sessions and works with adults facing life changes, grief, career stress, ADHD, and caregiver strain. Jenna writes in straightforward terms and aims to make the first steps feel less overwhelming.
Jenna uses a mix of practical approaches and listening. Early sessions focus on getting to know a person.
Background and approach
She asks questions, listens to priorities, and invites clients to ask questions in return. Together they map short-term goals and realistic next steps. Her style centers on collaboration.
Jenna treats therapy as a team effort and encourages people to take an active role in creating goals. She teaches tools people can use between sessions, such as thought tracking and simple behavioral experiments. Jenna draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns.
She also uses mindfulness practices to help manage overwhelming emotions and solution-focused strategies to build concrete next steps. Motivational interviewing helps when people need support making changes at their own pace. People who want direct, practical support may find this approach useful.
Jenna aims to balance listening with concrete skills, so sessions feel both understanding and actionable. She encourages straightforward conversation about parenting concerns and other life stressors.

How Jenna’s approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s goals and lived experience. Jenna follows the client’s lead, asks about priorities, and works alongside people to set meaningful goals. This approach helps when someone needs a respectful space to make sense of parenting stress or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Jenna helps people identify patterns that get in the way, try small behavioral experiments, and track progress. CBT can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress in daily life.
Mindfulness practices are simple exercises to notice the present moment. Jenna may offer brief breathing or grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and build tolerance for difficult feelings, which can help during parenting challenges or grief.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenna collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time so goals stay relevant and doable.
Online therapy makes sessions easier to fit into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions reduce bandwidth needs, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options give flexibility for people balancing parenting, work, and other responsibilities.
