About Jennifer

Jennifer Hornberger, LPC offers practical, down-to-earth counseling focused on real problems people face. She draws on a mix of approaches to help people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Jennifer aims to give straightforward tools people can use between sessions.

She uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Mindfulness strategies are woven into sessions to help clients notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and wants to find their own reasons to change.

Jennifer has three years of documented LPC experience and works with adults on a range of concerns. Her focus includes trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, relationship and family stress, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses caregiver strain, communication problems, and issues around pregnancy and postpartum mood changes.

Sessions concentrate on practical steps people can try right away. She listens to what matters most and tailors techniques to fit each person’s goals. The aim is to build small habits that add up to better day-to-day coping.

Jennifer is based in Missouri and offers services in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How selected approaches translate to online work

Jennifer uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. In practice this means learning ways to manage strong feelings, reduce impulsive reactions, and practice skills between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy is used to help people notice thoughts and body sensations without judgment, which can calm anxiety and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is something the therapist will do together with the client. Jennifer listens to each person's goals and preferences, then recommends strategies that fit their needs. That collaborative process may include trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most.

Specific session formats were not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for quicker check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter times, use less bandwidth by avoiding video, or schedule shorter sessions that fit a lunch break or work pause. Licensed professionals can adapt DBT and mindfulness exercises to remote settings so skills practice continues between sessions.
