About Jennifer
Jennifer Boes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with seven years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Jennifer also works with concerns such as attachment issues, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety and phobia.
Her sessions focus on clear, practical conversation and emotional processing. She listens to what matters most to each person and then uses therapy methods that fit those needs. Jennifer uses client-centered work to keep the client's perspective central and trauma-focused approaches when histories of harm are involved.
She also includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, commonly called EMDR, when appropriate to address distressing memories and symptoms that persist after traumatic events. EMDR is used as part of a broader plan rather than on its own.
Jennifer aims to help people build better coping skills and steady day-to-day routines. Her work includes short- and longer-term plans depending on the concern and goals. People who want clear, direct talk about anxiety, panic, or the effects of trauma often find this helpful.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow professional standards for therapy in California. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking. To start, complete the provider's intake questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and uses open, reflective conversation to clarify values and immediate goals. It helps with anxiety, low confidence, and planning for life changes by keeping discussions focused on what the person wants to address.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a structured method for working with disturbing memories and lingering trauma symptoms. When appropriate, EMDR is used alongside other approaches to reduce the intensity of distress linked to specific events.
Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the effects of traumatic experiences and teaches skills to manage symptoms and daily functioning. It often combines processing of past events with concrete strategies to handle triggers and stressors.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client's goals, and adjust the plan based on progress and preference. This collaborative process aims to match methods to what helps most.
Session formats should be confirmed before booking as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about current session options during the intake so arrangements match daily routines and technical needs.
