Jennifer Kordell

Jennifer Kordell is a licensed independent clinical social worker based in Minnesota who offers a warm, direct, and patient, person-centered approach to therapy. She prioritizes meeting people where they are and supports clients at whatever pace feels right for them, whether they seek a listening ear, guidance, or practical strategies for change.

Jennifer works primarily from a person-centered framework that treats each client as the expert on their own life. She focuses on building confidence and fostering the strengths people already have, allowing progress to unfold at a comfortable rate. Sharing only what feels safe and appropriate is respected as part of that collaborative process.

With 3 years of clinical experience, Jennifer has often worked with adults experiencing depression and anxiety and has experience with the aging population and diverse communities. Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, career difficulties, and compassion fatigue.

She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and holds a Minnesota license as an independent clinical social worker, which enables her to practice in clinical and non-clinical settings; her license is MN LICSW 23892. Jennifer is comfortable meeting by video, phone, live chat, or messaging, and she typically offers most availability on weekday evenings. She welcomes connections from people who feel she might be a good fit, and she supports each person in finding the right match if different support is preferred.
