About Jennifer
She believes counseling can offer education, practical support, and a clear plan. Sessions focus on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. Then she and the client map out concrete steps to test new ways of thinking and acting.
Her primary method is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, so conversations often examine unhelpful beliefs and everyday habits. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness ideas when emotional regulation or intense feelings are part of the work. Narrative and solution-focused tools are used to highlight strengths and small wins.
Clients can expect a collaborative style that emphasizes real-world change rather than only talking about problems. Dr. McGee frames therapy as a space to sort through emotions and try practical strategies. She encourages bold, deliberate moves toward a life that feels more satisfying.
People seeking help for grief, trauma, relationship strain, compassion fatigue, career questions, or midlife issues will find a therapist who blends structure with empathy. Dr. McGee asks what matters to each person and helps build a step-by-step plan to get there.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Dr. McGee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. DBT emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.She also integrates mindfulness techniques to help clients notice thoughts and bodily states without judgment. Each method is presented in plain terms and linked to practical exercises clients can try between sessions. Finding the right blend is part of the process, and she works together with each person to choose approaches that match their needs, goals, and preferences.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some approaches lend themselves to at-home practice worksheets or brief skill rehearsals that fit into daily life, and the therapist will help adapt exercises to the format you use.
