About Jennifer
Jennifer Wickham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 26 years of experience. She lists stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting, and related issues among her focus areas, including social anxiety and phobia. She works with people across life stages and aims to address the difficulties that show up in relationships and daily life.
Her approach blends attachment-based ideas with practical skills. She uses client-centered conversations to hear what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are used to teach coping skills and manage intense emotions. EMDR is also among the tools she may incorporate when trauma memories are present.
Jennifer trained at the University of Wisconsin-Stout, earning a master’s degree in mental health counseling, and holds additional training from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in infant, early childhood, and family mental health. She has worked in inpatient adolescent residential treatment and community mental health settings, and she consults for the Wisconsin Association for Infant Mental Health.
Sessions emphasize practical steps and reflection. She often combines skill practice, discussion of relationships and attachment patterns, and trauma-focused work when needed. Parents and caregivers may find clear strategies for supporting infants and children alongside attention to adult concerns.
Outside her practice she is a parent, trains for endurance races, practices yoga, and plays the viola. She describes therapy as collaborative work that moves at a client’s pace and focuses on small, intentional steps toward change.
Approaches used online and how they help
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect current connections; it can help with parenting concerns and relationship struggles. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so the client’s goals guide the work; it suits people who want to talk things through at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which often helps with anxiety and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, history, and what feels doable. That choice can change over time as needs evolve, and sessions may mix approaches to address symptoms and underlying patterns.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as the biography does not list explicit formats. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into busy days, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or evening meetings after caregiving duties. It can also reduce travel time and let someone join from a quieter location or when they prefer not to be on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, attachment-focused conversations, and trauma work like EMDR to remote sessions when appropriate, and the therapist will discuss what will work best for each person before the first meeting.
