Jennifer Fishman is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Oregon who also holds licensure in Idaho, along with national counselor certification and a graduate certificate in addiction studies. With 17 years of experience, she has provided counseling in a variety of community agency settings and in private practice.
Before entering the counseling field, she worked as an adult educator for colleges and business schools, where she focused on helping students identify an individual life path and use education as a tool. That same drive to support personal discovery informs her work as a therapist, where she helps people uncover their strengths and unique abilities for navigating life.
Her approach is adaptable and client-centered - she meets clients where they are and tailors interventions to each person’s needs. She uses a range of evidence-informed methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused techniques, and others, and she incorporates education about these approaches so clients can build their own set of tools and become more self-reliant.
Clients have told her that sessions offer new perspectives and leave them feeling empowered to address problems with unexpected solutions. She looks forward to meeting and getting to know new clients as they work toward their goals.
Many people wonder whether remote counseling can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to in-person care.
One major benefit is convenience - clients can connect in the format that fits their lives, whether by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to keep appointments and integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and clients may choose to switch providers if they want a different fit. For many people, online therapy offers an accessible and effective way to address everyday mental health challenges and move forward with practical strategies.
