About Jennifer

Jennifer Radler Dobrin blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with trauma-informed and existential perspectives to help clients find practical strategies and deeper meaning in their lives.

Background and approach

She brings ten years of clinical work as an LCMHC, using structured tools alongside compassionate engagement to address symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress while also attending to relationship and intimacy concerns.

Her practice includes focus on addiction, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and LGBTQ issues, with additional attention to caregiver strain, chronic illness, communication difficulties, and first responder challenges. Working from Vermont, she aims to support people in strengthening self-esteem, improving communication, and developing coping skills for life changes and career stress.

Jennifer emphasizes collaborative care that balances symptom-focused techniques with exploration of values and purpose. She frames therapy as a place to build resilience, process past hurt, and cultivate self-love while learning concrete skills to manage daily challenges and long-term recovery.

Applying CBT and Trauma-Focused Care Online

Jennifer commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy when working with clients online. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, while trauma-focused work centers on processing traumatic memories and building skills to manage triggers and post-traumatic stress reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to clarify goals, consider symptom patterns and life context, and jointly decide whether CBT strategies, trauma-focused techniques, DBT skills, or a mix best fits the client’s needs and preferences.

Online formats offer flexibility to engage in that process from wherever clients are located in Vermont. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and processing, phone sessions can suit those who prefer audio-only contact, and live chat or text-based messaging provide more immediate, shorter exchanges for coaching and check-ins. These options help integrate therapy into busy lives while maintaining a consistent course of care.
