Jennifer Garland

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I have been an individual and family therapist licensed in Missouri and Illinois . In my practice, I have served those coping with anxiety, stress, depression, substance abuse, parenting challenges, and a plethora of other issues. I have extensive experience working with victims of childhood abuse and trauma.

I bring a strength based perspective to all situations. I believe that everyone has strengths they can draw upon to work through life’s challenges and hardships. My therapeutic approach is a mixture of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and integrative therapies. Everyone is unique and therapy sessions must be individualized as well.

Reaching out for help is admirable and no easy task. I’m glad you have taken that first step and I look forward to talking with you.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether meeting with a therapist online can make a real difference. For a wide range of everyday concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and adapting to life changes – online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.

One major benefit is convenience and flexibility. People can choose the format that fits their needs and schedule best – video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to maintain consistent care.

Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and you have the option to switch to another therapist if you feel a different fit would be more helpful. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible option for many seeking support.
