About Jenny
Jenny Javins is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. She focuses on practical steps that build resilience and self-compassion. Jenny aims to make sessions feel like a calm place to talk through hard moments and set realistic goals.
She uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes but feel stuck. That approach helps draw out personal motivation and small steps toward change. Jenny also uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen deeply and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Her work often centers on challenges tied to caregiving, postpartum depression, compassion fatigue, and women’s issues. She helps people navigate divorce and separation, communication problems, and the guilt and shame that follow difficult choices. Jenny also supports those coping with post-traumatic stress and the everyday strain of family responsibilities.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. She helps clients set manageable actions, practice new communication skills, and find ways to reconnect with self-worth and self-love. Jenny keeps language simple and practical so every visit offers something you can use.
With six years of clinical experience in West Virginia, she brings steady care and straightforward tools. Prospective clients who want to begin are encouraged to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule time based on therapist availability.

How these approaches guide online therapy
Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses reflective listening and questions that draw out personal goals, which can help with motivation for behavior changes like managing stress or improving self-care.
Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person in the room. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client’s pace, which can be useful when processing grief, guilt, or relationship stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to identify which methods match their goals and preferences. That may mean trying one way for a few sessions and adjusting based on what feels most helpful.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life, such as fitting sessions around work or family commitments. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm current session options before booking. Practical benefits often include shorter travel time and the ability to schedule therapy at times that work during the week. Licensed professionals can help tailor session pacing and homework so progress continues between visits. -
