About Jennifer

Jennifer Roney is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Services Provider designation in Tennessee. She draws on over a decade of counseling experience to help people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or burned out. Her approach is warm and practical and aimed at steady progress rather than quick fixes.

She helps with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and the strain that comes with parenting or caregiving. She also supports people facing trauma, relationship and intimacy questions, career stress, addiction concerns, and difficulties with attention and mood. Jennifer includes LGBT-related issues and a range of attachment and adoption-related challenges in her practice focus.

Jennifer uses a mix of approaches that match each person’s needs. She draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current struggles. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy strategies help people make space for difficult feelings while moving toward meaningful goals.

With 11 years of clinical experience as an LPC, LPC-MHSP, she has worked in community mental health settings and with a wide range of presenting problems. Sessions focus on practical tools, emotion regulation skills, and clearer communication patterns. Jennifer aims to help clients build routines that support better sleep, reduced reactivity, and healthier boundaries.

To begin, she asks people to describe what they want to change and what they value most. From there she and the client set clear, achievable steps and track progress over time.

Approaches and how online sessions can work

Jennifer commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. She also brings Attachment-Based Therapy ideas, which look at early relationship patterns so people can understand how those patterns show up in current relationships and reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jennifer will review your needs and goals and discuss which techniques fit best. She treats the choice as a collaboration and checks in as therapy progresses so methods can be adjusted when needed.

The original biography does not specify which remote formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce time spent traveling, and allow quicker check-ins when stress spikes. Some formats are better for focused skills practice, while others work well for longer emotional processing; Jennifer will help match the session style to your goals and schedule.
