About Jennifer

Jennifer Robart is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping people make practical changes in their lives. She brings a warm, conversational style to sessions and works with clients to set clear, achievable goals. Jennifer emphasizes empathy and aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can be themselves.

She spent several years supporting people in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, and that work shaped her approach to related concerns. She has experience addressing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and anger. She also helps people cope with life changes, compassion fatigue, relationship strains, intimacy questions, self-esteem issues, bipolar disorder, and addictive behaviors.

Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to guide conversations toward concrete shifts in thinking and behavior. Sessions are client-directed and paced to match each person’s readiness for change. She focuses on practical strategies people can try between meetings to build momentum.

Her background in addiction services means she is comfortable talking about recovery-related topics and the complex emotions that come with them. She prioritizes establishing trust and working side by side with clients to identify what matters most to them. Progress is framed as steady steps rather than sudden fixes.

People who choose Jennifer can expect clear goal-setting, straightforward tools, and encouragement to apply new skills in everyday life. She invites clients to explore their strengths and try approaches that fit their circumstances.

How CBT and Motivational Interviewing translate to online therapy

Jennifer uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that reduce distress. CBT focuses on practical exercises and small experiments that can be tracked between meetings, which often helps with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to support readiness for change. This approach centers on the client's own goals and values and helps people resolve mixed feelings about change, which can be useful for addictions, recovery work, and lifestyle shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jennifer works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a client's needs and pace. She tailors strategies to personal goals and adjusts methods as progress unfolds.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into busy days. Online work can make it simpler to continue care when life changes or travel makes in-person visits difficult. The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking to make sure they match your routine and technical needs.
