About Jenny

Jenny Infanger is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience. She is licensed in Utah, Kansas, and Missouri and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. Jenny is also familiar with issues related to family and parenting, and she notes awareness of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as part of her background.

Jenny uses straightforward conversation to help people sort through current problems. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance and commitment ideas to help clients notice what matters and act on it. Attachment-focused work is used to look at how early connections influence current relationships. Dialectical behavior tools are available for managing intense emotions and building practical skills.

In sessions she listens for what feels stuck and then tries small, doable steps clients can practice between meetings. She pays attention to family of origin patterns, communication problems, and issues like abandonment or caregiver stress. Topics such as parenting strain, intimacy concerns, body image, and career stress are included in her scope.

Clients can expect calm, focused conversation and a plan that aims for clear next steps. She considers each person’s story when suggesting techniques from CBT, ACT, DBT, and attachment work. Progress is tracked by what changes in daily life rather than by abstract measures.

Jenny’s background includes work with grief, adoption and foster care questions, and challenges related to ADHD and bipolar mood concerns. People who want practical coping tools and attention to relational patterns may find her approach useful.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. It is often used for anxiety, life changes, and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy examines patterns from early relationships to understand current relationship and parenting struggles and can help with intimacy and family of origin issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jenny collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She balances skill teaching, reflection on relationship patterns, and doable homework so clients can test what helps in real life.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Some formats may require less bandwidth or no camera, which can help when a quick appointment is needed. Discuss format preferences when arranging the first meeting so sessions match everyday routines.
