About Jennifer

Jennifer Gleizer is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California who focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and coping with life changes. She brings 15 years of professional experience to work that centers on practical, collaborative problem solving and compassionate engagement.

Background and approach

Her practice attends to a range of related issues including abandonment, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment struggles, communication breakdowns, divorce and separation, and substance use challenges. Her approach is individualized: she tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s situation, blending Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with narrative and solution-focused techniques and elements of Internal Family Systems when helpful.

Jennifer emphasizes respect and sensitivity while helping clients explore guilt, shame, forgiveness, self-love, sexuality, and questions about life purpose. Taking the first step toward meaningful change is framed as an act of courage, and she aims to accompany clients through that process with steady support and practical strategies.

Evidence-Based Approaches and How They Work Online

Jennifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce anxiety and improve coping with stress and addictions. Narrative Therapy is another tool she employs to help clients reframe life stories and separate themselves from problem-saturated narratives, a useful approach for relationship and family issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She works collaboratively with clients to select and adapt methods based on individual goals, preferences, and the presenting concerns, and she adjusts techniques as progress is made.

Online therapy with her is delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity across life transitions, and access support from home or another convenient setting.
