About Jenny
Jenny Wright is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Missouri with three years of experience as a therapist. She has worked in mental health settings for 15 years, including case management, acute care therapy, residential care for children, and intensive outpatient substance use programs. Her practice addresses stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, anger, career issues, ADHD, and related areas.
Jenny uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques to help people notice patterns, try new strategies, and build on strengths. Conversations are plain and focused on real-life problems rather than jargon. Sessions look at how your environment and supports affect how you feel and act.
Her background as a social worker and case manager shapes how she sees problems. She pays attention to social supports, living situations, and daily routines when helping someone manage anger, stress, or addiction. That background means she often combines skill-building with help finding resources and practical coping tools.
Jenny reports experience with people from diverse cultures and with members of the LGBTQ+ community. She also notes work supporting people who live with visible and invisible disabilities. Her approach is collaborative: she helps people use what already works for them and adds tools where needed.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jenny commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing along with Client-Centered techniques. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anger, anxiety, and mood symptoms. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify goals and find motivation to change habits like substance use or avoidance. Client-Centered work emphasizes listening and using a person’s own strengths to guide next steps.Choosing the right approach is part of working together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities with each person and then recommend methods to try. That collaborative planning can include skill practice, problem-solving, and short homework tasks to fit your schedule.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, shorten some check-ins, or avoid travel time. It can also allow single-focus sessions that are shorter or use less bandwidth when needed. Jenny’s clinical approaches lend themselves to practical online work such as learning coping skills, tracking mood and triggers, and rehearsing new responses to anger.
