Jennifer Rastetter, LPCC

Jennifer Rastetter is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with ten years of experience helping people face stressful and painful moments. She writes plainly and works in a direct, no-frills style while staying compassionate. People who want straightforward guidance and honest feedback often fit well with her approach.

Her work focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, and relationship and family concerns. She also supports people with trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues, anger, career challenges, bipolar concerns, and life transitions. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication problems, and alternative-sex culture topics such as BDSM and kink.

Jennifer uses practical, evidence-informed methods. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a regular part of her work to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns, and client-centered skills to keep the work focused on each person's goals.

Sessions are meant to be active and collaborative. Clients can expect to set goals, practice new skills between meetings, and get direct feedback during sessions. She blends techniques from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) when those approaches suit the concern.

Jennifer offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit varying schedules. She works with English-speaking adults in Ohio and brings a practical, results-oriented stance to each session.

Therapeutic methods and online care that fit your life

Jennifer commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in daily life; this approach is practical and focused on changing patterns that keep problems going. She also works with attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape current ways of relating, which can be useful for intimacy, abandonment, and communication concerns. Client-centered techniques are woven in to keep the work driven by each person's goals and pace, with the therapist offering empathy and reflective listening.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that fit. Together they will try approaches and adjust the plan when something is not helping, keeping the process collaborative and solution-minded.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video helps when visual cues matter, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing coaching or quick updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or other responsibilities while keeping the focus on practical progress.
