About Jennifer

Dr. Jennifer Todd is a licensed professional counselor in Alabama with more than two decades of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, career questions, and the challenges that come with life changes. Her work also covers ADHD, addictions, grief, trauma, and issues around intimacy and relationships. She approaches each person with respect and a belief that they know their story best.

In sessions she listens first, then helps people identify small, practical steps that can make a difference. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to notice unhelpful thinking and test new ways of responding.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements help when emotion and connection feel stuck. Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and improve attention to the present moment. Existential conversations can help people clarify values and purpose when life changes feel overwhelming.

Her background includes executive and professional coaching and long experience supporting compassion fatigue. That experience informs work with caregivers, health workers, and people in demanding roles. Sessions aim to build motivation, confidence, and clearer goals.

Dr. Todd will work collaboratively to set goals and try approaches that fit each person. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking.

How therapeutic methods shape online sessions

Dr. Todd uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a listening space where the person's priorities lead the work. That approach focuses on understanding each person's perspective and letting goals emerge from their own experience.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of unhelpful thinking and test small behavioral changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and for building coping skills that fit daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Todd works collaboratively to decide which methods feel most helpful based on the person's needs, goals, and preferences. She will adapt techniques over time and check in about what is and isn't working.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and allow continuity when circumstances change. Licensed professionals can use different tools to support homework, mindfulness practice, and the skill-building work that follows sessions.
