01About Jennie
Jennie Young is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and low self-esteem. She offers calm, practical support for everyday struggles. Jennie encourages steady, manageable steps when life feels overwhelming.
She focuses on creating a welcoming space where people can talk honestly about their thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to reduce shame and build coping skills rather than rush to quick fixes.
Background and approach
Jennie listens first, then works with each person to set realistic goals. Her approach blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral tools. That means she helps people notice patterns in thinking and behavior, and then tries simpler ways of responding to those patterns.
The work is collaborative and based on what the client needs right now. Jennie also supports people facing caregiving stress, end-of-life concerns, and aging-related challenges. She helps with relationship and communication problems, divorce and separation issues, and process addictions such as gambling or compulsive behaviors.
Seasonal mood shifts, panic attacks, and social anxiety are within her focus. Therapy can be done by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules. Jennie practices in Alabama and conducts sessions in English.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability.

04Online support
Using client-centered and CBT approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what is said, and helps a person feel understood so they can explore concerns like grief or low self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, panic, or depressive symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennie will collaborate with each person to decide whether client-centered listening, CBT techniques, or a mix fits best. That decision is based on the individual's goals, needs, and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations when face-to-face cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and messaging provide quick check-ins and shorter, more frequent touchpoints. These options make it easier to get help around work, caregiving duties, or busy schedules.
