Jennie Nelson, LPC

Jennie Nelson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people navigate stressful and painful times. She focuses on depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and parenting concerns. Jennie aims to make therapy feel welcoming and straightforward for people who are worried or unsure about starting. She brings four years of clinical experience to each session. Jennie uses evidence-based techniques and trauma-informed care to guide conversations. Sessions are collaborative and paced to match what each person needs in the moment. Jennie centers LGBTQ+ clients so they feel seen and respected during care. She pays attention to individual strengths and life context rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. That often means practical steps alongside talking through difficult feelings. She also supports people facing caregiver stress, attachment issues, communication or family problems, and challenges linked to autism, intellectual disability, or impulsivity. Jennie listens for patterns that get in the way of daily life and helps people try different ways of coping. People work with her to build insight, reduce overwhelm, and find clearer ways to manage parenting and relationship demands. She describes therapy as a shared process where small changes add up over time.

How therapeutic techniques translate to online care

Jennie bases her work on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and trauma-informed care. Evidence-based techniques focus on practices shown to help reduce symptoms and improve coping, using structured strategies and step-by-step exercises that address unhelpful patterns. Trauma-informed care means sessions are shaped around safety, pacing, and respect for past difficult experiences so people can process at a manageable pace.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and Jennie treats it as a collaboration. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together you will try approaches that seem like a good fit and adjust as needed based on how things are going.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking as formats were not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone keep therapy going after a move or when life is otherwise disruptive. Jennie will discuss what works best for scheduling and how to make sessions productive for your situation.
