About Jennifer

Jennifer Malott is an LCSW in Indiana who brings 12 years of clinical therapeutic experience to her practice. She has worked extensively with people managing depression, anxiety, bipolar and psychotic disorders, and she draws on a background that includes vocational counseling to address work-related stress and employment concerns.

Background and approach

Her clinical toolkit also covers a wide range of other concerns such as trauma, grief, addiction, ADHD, relationship and family problems, and eating-related issues. Her style is approachable and relaxed, creating space for clients to share openly while keeping therapy focused on concrete goals and steps.

Jennifer blends cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance-based and client-centered methods, and she incorporates mindfulness and dialectical skills when helpful. She aims to collaborate with each person to identify practical strategies that address stressors from work, parenting, and everyday life, guiding clients toward manageable change and improved functioning.

Clients can expect a pragmatic, supportive clinician who values partnership in the therapeutic process. Jennifer uses her vocational experience and broad clinical background to help people navigate complex challenges and move toward clearer goals and more satisfying daily routines.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Jennifer commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and depression. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support people in clarifying values and learning acceptance-based strategies for distress that don’t rely on changing every internal experience.

Finding the right method is part of therapy; she approaches this collaboratively and tailors techniques to each person’s goals and preferences. Together the client and therapist will consider which strategies fit the presenting concerns and life circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for scheduling around work and family responsibilities. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice skills between sessions, while allowing clients to meet with a licensed professional from their own location in Indiana.
