About Jennifer
Jennifer Giannino is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and parenting concerns. She works with individuals coping with low self-esteem, motivation struggles, grief, and the fallout of trauma and abuse. Her approach is practical and respectful, focused on what a person already knows and can use to move forward.
Jennifer emphasizes collaboration. She believes each person is the expert on their own life and brings strengths to the work.
Background and approach
Sessions center on clear goals, small steps, and building confidence to handle daily challenges. Her style aims to be steady and encouraging. People can expect straightforward conversation about what’s getting in the way and concrete ideas to try between visits.
She encourages honest talk about setbacks as well as progress. Jennifer has 17 years of experience in counseling and is licensed in New Mexico. That background informs her ability to help with relationship strain, sleep problems, anger, and compassion fatigue without adding unnecessary jargon.
Parents who are worn down by the demands of caregiving will find practical support for navigating family stress and parenting decisions. Jennifer helps people identify patterns that cause strain and develop manageable routines and boundaries. She frames change as a step-by-step process.
Her work is aimed at helping people feel more able to cope with life changes, reduce symptoms of depression, and regain energy for what matters most.

Practical approaches and online sessions
Jennifer uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage emotions and develop new habits. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to reduce anxiety and sadness; it teaches simple ways to shift thinking and behavior. Another approach emphasizes building routines, sleep hygiene, and small behavior changes to improve energy, sleep, and daily functioning; this is useful for depression, fatigue, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level, and will adjust strategies based on what is or isn’t helping over time.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing, shorter exchanges between appointments. These options make it easier to fit counseling into parenting routines, work breaks, or times when a full visit isn’t possible.
