Jenny Wright

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hello and welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Jenny Wright and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker working out of Missouri. I am recently licensed as a therapist, but I have been working in mental health for the last 15 years. I completed my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kansas in 2019. I have substantial experience as a case manager and have most recently worked as a therapist for clients in an acute setting. Prior to that I worked at a children’s residential care facility and at an intensive outpatient substance abuse facility.

Mental health is a passion of mine, and I take my role in your wellness very seriously. I believe that every person deserves to find the right approach to living the best life that they can live. I always put my clients first and use the strengths and tools that they possess to let them be the main driver behind their success. I am just here to guide you and be a helping hand in achieving your goals. With me, you will always feel like you are number one!

As a social worker and former case manager, I believe that a person’s environment and social supports are integral to forming a healthy and nourishing way of life. I take a very holistic and eclectic treatment approach, incorporating many styles and techniques. I am particularly adept in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solutions Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I enjoy spending time getting to know the person that I am working with so that I can help them fully utilize the world around them on their quest for happiness. I believe that somewhere deep within each of us is an opportunity to improve and change in ways that accommodate even the most distressing of circumstances.

I believe that everyone deserves that chance. I love working with people from a broad variety of backgrounds and experiences. I have ample experience working within the LGBTQ+ community and with a variety of cultures and worldviews. I believe that it is our differences that make us special and will never judge anybody for being different than myself. I am also a strong supporter of those with disabilities, both visible and invisible, and have a personal connection with those that struggle to find their place in the world based on their perceived limitations. You deserve to be you and to live a life that you are truly passionate about.

I am truly glad that you are here and I look forward to working with you!

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions – online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care. Research and practice suggest that virtual sessions work well for these kinds of issues and can produce meaningful progress for many people.

A key advantage of remote therapy is flexibility. Individuals can choose the format that best suits them, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access support from wherever is most convenient.

Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they are seeking a different fit. For those weighing whether remote therapy is appropriate, considering the practical benefits and the kinds of concerns commonly addressed can help determine if it is a good next step.
