About Jennifer

Dr. Jennifer Woehr is a New York psychologist (NY Psychologist 016316) with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, addictions, relationship and parenting concerns, and cognitive changes related to aging or injury. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

She focuses on clear, practical conversations. She helps people name what triggers their anger and frustration. She uses straightforward strategies to reduce reactivity and to improve communication with others. The work is collaborative and paced to what the person can manage.

Her background includes long experience supporting people after trauma, domestic abuse, or narcissistic abuse. She also has experience with mood disorders, bipolar disorder, substance use, and cognitive difficulties from medical or developmental conditions. That experience informs how she adapts conversations and coping plans.

In sessions she listens for patterns in thoughts and behavior that keep problems going. She then introduces concrete tools - for example breathing and grounding techniques, problem-solving steps, and ways to change unhelpful thinking. Homework and practice between sessions are offered when useful.

Clients can expect verbal, practical guidance and observations about behavior. Dr. Woehr aims to help people manage intense emotions, sleep better, and handle stress at work or home. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Dr. Woehr uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anger and related concerns. One approach focuses on identifying triggers and changing unhelpful thinking patterns; this involves noticing automatic thoughts, testing them, and practicing alternative responses to reduce reactivity. Another approach emphasizes behavioral and skills work such as breathing, grounding, and step-by-step problem solving to handle intense moments and reduce impulsive actions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each client to decide which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That shared planning includes checking how strategies feel in real situations and adjusting the plan as needed.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when a quick update helps maintain progress. They also let people try out skills in the context of their everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises to work well over video or phone, and Dr. Woehr will discuss what will work best for each person during the matching and scheduling steps.
