About Jennifer

Jennifer Such is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of practice experience who draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside complementary approaches to help clients address a wide range of concerns.

Background and approach

She uses evidence-informed methods to focus on symptoms such as stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, addictions, trauma and abuse, and attentional challenges, while also addressing relationship, intimacy, parenting, career, grief, sleep, and self-esteem issues.

Her work blends CBT with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered techniques, DBT skills, and EMDR when appropriate, creating a flexible framework that meets each person where they are. Jennifer emphasizes compassionate, empathic engagement and aims to collaborate with clients to identify strengths and practical strategies for coping with life changes, chronic health challenges, codependency, and other complex presentations.

She practices in Missouri and holds licensure as an LCSW, bringing clinical experience from a variety of settings to her moderated, skills-oriented approach.

Online evidence-informed approaches and accessible care

Jennifer integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts, build practical skills, and clarify values-driven goals. CBT focuses on recognizing and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, insomnia, or addictive behaviors, while ACT emphasizes accepting difficult internal experiences and committing to meaningful actions that align with personal values.

She also uses client-centered principles to create a collaborative, empathic therapeutic relationship in virtual sessions, making room for each person’s preferences and strengths. Determining which combination of approaches will be most helpful is part of the process; the therapist partners with clients to match methods to their needs, goals, and comfort level rather than imposing a single style.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for scheduling and communication. These options can make it easier to fit regular therapeutic work into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and access support from home or another convenient location.
