Jennie Young

Jennie Young is an Alabama-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She helps clients navigate relationship strain, parenting stress, depression, and compassion fatigue. Jennie emphasizes a calm, accepting approach that makes it easier to talk about hard things.

She aims to create a nonjudgmental space where feelings and thoughts can be shared openly. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals, not on jargon. Jennie listens closely and adapts the pace to each person's needs.

Jennie uses client-centered methods to follow a person's lead and build on their strengths. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot patterns of thinking that increase distress and try different, healthier responses.

Her background spans two decades of helping people manage addiction, grief, caregiver stress, and aging-related concerns. She has worked with those coping with hospice and end-of-life counseling topics, offering steady support through difficult decisions and emotions.

People meet Jennie when they want calm guidance and hands-on coping tools. She encourages small steps toward clearer thinking and steadier days. To begin, she asks for a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions to match each person’s needs.

How Jennie’s approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and builds on their own strengths to face grief, life transitions, or caregiver stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It gives straightforward tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, panic, and depressive symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Jennie works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. She adjusts techniques and pacing as needs evolve so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Session options are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or reducing the need for high bandwidth when video is difficult. Many people find these practical benefits help them keep steady progress between sessions.
