About Jennifer
Dr. Jennifer Woehr helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, addiction concerns, and parenting challenges. She is a New York psychologist with 25 years of professional experience and works to create an open, nonjudgmental space for sharing difficult thoughts and feelings.
Her approach is collaborative. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now and building practical ways to cope. She tailors plans with input from the person she is seeing and adjusts strategies as needed.
Background and approach
Dr. Woehr has worked with people experiencing cognitive changes tied to aging, illness, injury, learning differences, or ADHD. She also attends to trauma, domestic and narcissistic abuse, postpartum mood concerns, and struggles with alcohol or substance use.
She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in each session. Conversations aim to clarify goals, sort priorities, and practice new skills that can be used between meetings. Her style blends problem-focused work with supportive listening.
People can expect a steady guide who helps them make practical changes and build coping habits over time.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Many clinicians who focus on stress, mood, trauma, and addiction use evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine problem-solving with skill practice. One common approach teaches concrete coping skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems; sessions include step-by-step strategies and homework to try between meetings. Another approach focuses on understanding how past experiences and trauma affect current thoughts and behaviors, helping people recognize patterns and change unhelpful responses.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with the person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult, while phone sessions can be easier when low bandwidth or short check-ins are needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates, ask quick questions, or check in between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity of care across locations.
