About Jennie
Jennie Bell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, grief, and problems at work or home. She also supports those coping with ADHD, addiction, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, and parenting strain.
Her style is straightforward and patient. She listens first and works with each person to decide what matters most. Conversations focus on practical steps that reduce tension and improve everyday functioning. Sessions move at a pace that fits the client rather than a preset template.
Jennie uses approaches that help people make clear changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's goals and preferences in the work.
She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas when people need skills for intense emotions, and Narrative Therapy to look at the stories people tell about themselves. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants to change a habit but feels stuck.
In therapy with Jennie, expect practical tools and a focus on real-life situations. Conversations often include skill-building, clearer planning for stressful moments, and ways to break cycles of resentment or reactivity. Jennie helps people test small changes and notice what works in their daily life.
How her approaches translate to online work
Jennie commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's goals and preferences, and keeps the conversation driven by what the person wants to address. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors contribute to problems and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns.She may also draw on Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas to teach emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills when needed. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that fit the client's needs, adjusting as progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and check in during short breaks. Phone sessions can work when video is difficult, and shorter sessions can help with quick skill practice. Discuss formats during the first scheduling step so sessions match your routine and goals.
