About Jennie

Jennie Kozlik is an Ohio Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 10 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and depression. Jennie also addresses issues like abandonment, attachment, body image, caregiver stress, and codependency, with care for people affected by adoption, blended families, chronic illness, and alternative sexual cultures.

She earned an Associate of Arts in human services, a Bachelor of Social Work from Youngstown State University, and a Master of Social Science Administration from Case Western Reserve University. Her clinical background includes inpatient hospital units and community mental health agencies, where she worked with young people starting at age 13 and adults.

Jennie favors a person-centered approach and adapts techniques to each person. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, motivational interviewing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. In sessions she focuses on practical skills, clearer thinking, and values-based steps.

People can expect collaborative sessions that emphasize building coping strategies and strengthening self-worth. Jennie aims to help people notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.

She conducts work with video telehealth and offers services in English. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the See online therapy options button.

How evidence-based methods are used in video sessions

Jennie works with several evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to video sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to change mood and stress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and guilt-related thinking.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling relationship conflicts. Motivational interviewing helps people clarify values and find internal reasons to try changes, which can be useful when feeling stuck or ashamed.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Practical benefits of video sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day and shortening travel time. Video can allow for longer check-ins when needed or brief sessions that fit a work break. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled.
