Jenna Plouffe, LCPC

Jenna Plouffe is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana. She focuses on relationship strain, grief, addiction concerns, stress and anxiety, and issues like jealousy and intimacy that can make daily life harder. Jenna speaks English and welcomes clients from outside the U.S. when that fits the situation.

She uses a straightforward, collaborative style and treats each person as the expert on their life. Sessions emphasize listening first, then building practical steps that fit the client's goals. That can mean working on coping skills for big life changes, strengthening self-esteem, or talking through difficult family dynamics.

Over nine years Jenna has worked in outpatient and school settings, including time supporting elementary-age children and the adults in their lives. That background shapes her interest in parenting, school-related stress, and grief support, and it informs how she helps people manage transitions and everyday pressures.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centered care, along with cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness practices to help change unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Motivational interviewing is used when people want focused help with addiction or behavior change.

Jenna offers messaging, video, and phone chat options for sessions and for supplemental contact, with some evening availability. To begin, select the continue button on this profile, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How Jenna's approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current bonds and communication. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns in relationships, practice new ways of responding, and build trust over time. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and respect, helping clients set their own goals and move at their own pace, which fits well with conversational video or phone sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts and behaviors into manageable steps and teaches practical skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems; CBT tools can be assigned as short exercises between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jenna collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on goals, preferences, and how a person responds in early sessions. The plan can change as the work progresses so it fits real life.

The profile notes messaging plus video and phone chat as options that have been used for sessions and supplemental contact. Confirm the current session formats before booking to match your needs. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when useful, and reduce travel time so people can focus on the work itself.
