About Jennifer
Jennifer Hillberry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with nine years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and ADHD. Her work also addresses communication problems, divorce and separation, and related family concerns.
She uses straightforward, skills-based approaches in sessions. Jennifer draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques to help clients spot patterns and try different responses. Sessions often include practical tools for coping with strong emotions and for improving day-to-day routines.
Her background includes years supporting clients connected to the military community and others facing life transitions. That experience informs her focus on clear strategies and steady problem-solving rather than long, abstract discussion. She typically helps people develop short-term skills they can use between sessions.
In sessions she works collaboratively with each person to set goals and check progress. Expect concrete exercises, practice of new skills, and review of what is or isn’t working. She pays attention to communication habits and offers ways to reduce conflict and increase emotional regulation.
People looking for help with parenting stress, separation or recovering from traumatic events will find a practical orientation in her approach. She encourages small, manageable changes that fit into everyday life and emphasizes learning skills that can be used right away.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Jennifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms by changing daily routines and reactions. DBT offers specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can help with anger, relationship strain, and intense stress.Mindfulness practices are often woven into sessions to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Solution-focused elements help keep sessions goal-oriented and focused on small, practical steps a person can try between meetings. Together these approaches give a mix of short-term tools and longer-term skill building.
Finding the best mix is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to pick approaches that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust those methods over time based on what helps. That means trying an approach, reviewing results, and shifting course when needed.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be conducted. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and allow practice of skills in everyday settings without travel.
