    About Jenny

    Jenny Canales is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of parenting and career changes. She speaks English and accepts international clients. Her style is warm and engaging, and she centers the relationship as the foundation for meaningful work together.

    Jenny uses clear, practical methods to help people make changes that feel doable. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with a client-centered approach to address unhelpful thoughts and build skills people can use day to day. Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolbox to help clients explore their own reasons for change and find motivation that fits their life.

    Her background includes seven years of clinical experience working with trauma and abuse, including survivors of physical and sexual violence and human trafficking. She has applied trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral methods when addressing post-traumatic stress symptoms and related concerns. She also has experience supporting people living with ADHD and chronic mental health conditions.

    In sessions Jenny aims to create a respectful, sensitive atmosphere where people can speak openly about hard topics. She focuses on practical steps, skill-building, and pacing change to each person’s readiness. The work is collaborative and paced to what the individual feels able to take on.

    To begin, she asks people to identify what matters most to them and what they'd like to change. From there she and the client map out achievable goals and track progress in ways that fit everyday life.

  2. Approaches that guide online sessions

    Jenny uses Motivational Interviewing to help people explore their own reasons for change and build internal motivation. This approach involves asking open questions, reflecting what someone says, and supporting them to find steps they feel ready to take. Client-Centered Therapy is another key influence; it emphasizes listening with respect and adapting pace to each person's needs to create a trusting space for work.

    She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to change mood and stress. CBT tools might include short experiments between sessions, thought records, and practical coping strategies that translate into daily life.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust methods as needed. Together they decide which tools fit the client's needs and preferences rather than assuming one path up front.

    The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten commute time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Others appreciate having flexibility for shorter check-ins or different pacing, and the therapist will discuss what setup best supports the client's goals.
