About Jennifer

Jennifer Furlong is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who brings 20 years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on practical support for people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, and relationship or family concerns.

Background and approach

Her approach emphasizes collaboration and helping clients build skills to manage emotions, cope with life changes, and strengthen self-esteem and communication. Furlong combines evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered listening, and mindfulness practices to tailor care to each person’s needs.

She also draws on solution-focused strategies to set achievable goals and track progress over time. With training and experience in assessments and crisis intervention, she aims to provide calm, grounded guidance during difficult transitions and moments of overwhelm.

Clients can expect an empathetic, skill-building orientation that balances insight with concrete tools. Jennifer accepts international clients and offers a range of online formats to fit different schedules and preferences, helping people access ongoing support even when life feels complicated.

Integrating practical approaches for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on empathetic listening and building a trusting therapeutic relationship, creating space for clients to explore their concerns and identify their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop concrete coping skills for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and tools for managing emotional reactivity, which can support regulation and reduce rumination.

Finding the most helpful approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, try useful techniques, and adjust methods as needs and preferences emerge. Together they evaluate what feels effective and make changes so the approach fits the client's pace and objectives.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to attend regularly despite busy schedules or geographic distance. These formats support ongoing skill practice and check-ins between appointments, allowing licensed professionals to provide consistent support and adapt interventions to a client's everyday life.
