About Jenna
Jenna Lopez is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) with 15 years in mental health. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and ADHD. Jenna aims to make reaching out feel possible and practical for people who are overwhelmed or unsure where to begin.
She approaches care from a client-centered, strengths-based perspective. Jenna treats each person as the expert on their life and helps them set clear, achievable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on honest conversation, problem solving, and small concrete steps that move a person toward relief and better functioning. Jenna has spent much of her career supporting people who have experienced trauma and those navigating issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity. She combines listening with advocacy, helping people connect to resources and build action plans.
This blend of support and practical help aims to address both feelings and daily life needs. Nonjudgment is central to her work. Jenna creates a space where people can speak openly without shame, so they can be honest and do the real work therapy requires.
She also uses skills from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches to teach coping strategies and new habits. People who prefer a collaborative, problem-solving style may find her approach fits well. Jenna offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for clients in Washington.
She speaks English and holds licensure as WA LICSW and NE LIMHP.
Practical approaches for online therapy and coping skills
Jenna commonly uses attachment-based work to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps people understand why they react in certain ways and where safer, more connected ways of relating can be learned. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenna collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. Together they try techniques, track what helps, and adjust the plan so the work stays useful and manageable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skill teaching, phone can fit a break at work or lower bandwidth situations, and messaging or live chat suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make scheduling easier and let people keep therapy going around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
