About Jennie
Jennie Harvat is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Missouri with 10 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, and ADHD. Her work also addresses related concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, forgiveness, and guilt and shame.
Jennie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and often integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools into sessions. She combines these with attention to body-based practices such as sound techniques and, when appropriate, offers individualized suggestions for supportive herbal approaches. Sessions focus on skills for emotional regulation and clearer thinking about patterns that keep people stuck.
Her background includes a decade of clinical practice supporting trauma survivors and people navigating big life transitions. She has worked with those connected to the military and with others whose histories include prolonged stress or abuse. That experience shapes how she sets goals and structures work in therapy.
In sessions Jennie tends to be grounded and direct. She helps people notice the cycles that maintain shame or guilt and practices small skills to shift how intense emotions land in the body. Practical strategies and check-in questions are used alongside quieter mind-body techniques.
People interested in beginning work are guided to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Evidence-informed approaches and working online
Jennie integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques into her work, which focus on practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing reactivity, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT tools can help with panic, mood swings, and patterns that fuel persistent shame or guilt.She also uses trauma-informed, evidence-based practices that attend to how past events affect thinking and feeling today. These approaches include grounding and regulation strategies that pair well with body-centered techniques, and they are often useful for people managing post-traumatic stress, anxiety, or long-standing relational patterns.
Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which combination of skills, reflective work, and mind-body practices fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps in everyday life.
