About Jennie

Jennie Kozlik is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) who focuses on person-centered care. She uses direct, practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationships, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and depression. Jennie aims to help clients build resilience and a stronger sense of self. Jennie 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 work spans about ten years and includes inpatient hospital settings and community mental health agencies. That varied background shaped how she adapts sessions to the person in front of her. Her approach starts with listening and then choosing techniques that match each client. She commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, motivational interviewing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These methods are used to address symptoms and to teach concrete skills for coping and communication. Sessions emphasize practical tools and steady progress. Clients work on identifying unhelpful thoughts, practicing new behaviors, and building healthier habits. Jennie also helps people who are coping with abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, commitment and control issues, and aspects of kink and alternative sex culture. Jennie offers care in Ohio and works in English. People who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to her availability. The service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location and provider availability.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

Jennie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in straightforward ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values, useful for low self-worth, mood swings, and relationship choices.

Finding the right approach is something to do together. The therapist will listen to goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. If a technique isn’t helpful, adjustments are made in conversation so care feels relevant and practical.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people keep continuity of care when moving within the same state. Ask about available formats and scheduling when you complete the initial matching questionnaire.
