About Jennifer
Jennifer Hornberger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with three years of clinical experience. She works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, trauma and abuse, and struggles related to parenting and relationships. Jennifer also supports those coping with life changes, caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, and related concerns.
She uses several practical therapies and matches the approach to each person’s needs. In sessions she draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. She also uses solution-focused and narrative techniques to identify specific goals and to reshape the stories people tell about themselves.
Jennifer emphasizes straightforward tools people can use between meetings. That might mean practicing mindfulness skills, trying a brief behavioral change, or testing a different way of talking about a problem. Sessions are aimed at small, concrete steps rather than long lectures.
Her background includes work with trauma and domestic violence contexts, and she has experience addressing postpartum depression, panic, and post-traumatic stress. She has helped people dealing with hospice and end-of-life concerns, divorce and separation, and communication problems.
Jennifer offers support for people confronting difficult feelings like anger, resentment, or frequent irritability. She focuses on practical strategies to reduce reactivity and improve communication. To begin she asks about current struggles and what a manageable next step would look like.
How Jennifer uses therapeutic approaches in online work
Jennifer often uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing reactivity. DBT offers practices like emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can help when anger flares or stress becomes overwhelming.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice physical and emotional reactions without acting on them immediately. Mindfulness exercises are short and practical and can reduce automatic responses to frustration or resentment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about current struggles, goals, and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process makes it easier to pick strategies that fit the person’s life and comfort level.
