In the short amount of time that I have had with Jenna, I find her to be professional yet friendly. She is an active listener and tries to offer advice that suits my needs and positions. I know I'm not her only client but she makes me feel that I am. I like that. God knows what/who we need before we do.

- LCSW, LICSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oregon with a Masters in Social Work from the University of Denver. I hold my LCSW license in Oregon, I have over 8 years of experience working with individuals. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges, postpartum and ADHD. I have also helped many individuals who have experienced trauma or abuse.
My counseling style is calm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, individuality and compassion . My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic/holistic, solution-focused and Motivational Interviewing therapies. I also practice Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
This process can be an empowering experience giving you the insight to accept, change, grow and accomplish whatever you identify as your goals. I believe the therapeutic relationship can be a rewarding and remarkable experience. I take great care in the work I do to understand you and your needs. I would be honored to be invited to witness and walk with you on your journey during this chapter in your life story. Whatever your goal or motivation, therapy can be a rewarding adventure of acceptance and discovery. I believe that we all have our own answers; however, they are sometimes covered by life's challenges and stress. My role is to help you uncover the answers that make sense for you.
Every one of us can experience satisfaction and fulfillment in life. I am passionate about the field of psychology and therapy and am committed to being a consistent support to you as you navigate life’s challenges. I have a flexible schedule including days, evenings and weekends. I look forward to getting to know you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She has been kind and helpful so far. Also a great listener.
In the short amount of time that I have had with Jenna, I find her to be professional yet friendly. She is an active listener and tries to offer advice that suits my needs and positions. I know I'm not her only client but she makes me feel that I am. I like that. God knows what/who we need before we do.
Jenna has listened to me and given me good advice. She does not judge me and is supportive about my problems.
Jenna was very helpful in making new healthy perspectives for me in my life. She provides the essential tools to help overcome irrational thinking and unnecessary anxiety in life. I was very happy with her ability to understand my situation and how to make me grow from it. I've never felt more relieved with the support Jenna provided to strengthen me not just spiritually but also with the close relationships I have in my life. She was also great at responding in a timely manner to which I needed at times.
Jenna is supportive and replies regularly to my messages. I’m fortunate to have her as my counselor.
Jenna was a wonderful, kind and non-judgmental counselor to me as I struggled with postpartum depression/anxiety. She was patient with my setbacks and encouraging in my successes and I’m leaving counseling feeling like a new person!
Jenna Lander has been a great help to me. I feel she responded to my messages in a very kind and thoughtful manner. She sensed things from my comments that I did not write. In other words, she read between the lines. She asked me thought provoking questions to help me understand my situation better. I could always tell by her responses that she cared for me and wanted what was best for me. Words cannot describe how much I needed that. I am a quiet person. I don’t share personal issues with a lot of people. I know now how important it is to talk to someone who can help, because they understand people. I would recommend Jenna Lander as a counselor to anyone who needs help.
I like Jenna. I haven't done this counselling for long, but I appreciate her listening to me and trying to give me confidence to get myself out and away from the abuse I continue to suffer, and yet, am too much of a coward to do so far.
She is super sweet. Was able to point out the problems I needed to focus on to help bring everything together. She is super wise and asks questions that I've considered but never put into words. She reads in between the lines.
Jenna is great. She's a good listener, has ideas and experience in the areas where I need the most help and offers practical strategies of how to work through things.
Jenna really takes the time to get to know me and is helpful in her recommendations.
I've been working with Jenna for just over a year and her support has been exceptional! I love being able to schedule time outside of my work hours from 8am to 5pm and talk to her weekly. Knowing that you have someone who encouraging you and in your corner is the best feeling in the world. It is very easy to talk to her and she is very empathetic. Doesn't judge and help you process fully what you think and feel in your everyday life. She's always on time and super professional and just her voice tone makes her very easy to talk about. Thanks Jenna for all of your support!
Jenna is amazing! She is so easy to talk to, understanding, non judging and just supportive. Really helps make a rough week better to able to talk to someone with her skills and compassion. Jenna is awesome! Thanks for everything!
Jenna is amazing and one of the best counselors I have ever talked to! Can not thank her enough for everything!
Jenna is extremely kind and shows so much empathy and compassion during our sessions. The comfort she has given to me, truly makes me feel like I am chatting with a close friend. She provides great ideas, tools and insight and I always feel much better after my sessions with her.
jenna has been extremely supportive, personable, and resourceful. she has offered me new, helpful ideas for managing my anxiety, while also starting to help me learn how to practice helping myself without her there (with take away tasks and constructive goals).
Very helpful and only had two session and already providing me great tools and tips on life challenges. Very easy and don't feel judged. She really makes a comfortable environment to open up and really share what is going on what challenges you are facing. Always feel good after talking to Jenna! Thanks Jenna!
She is awesome
Jenna is truly very empathetic and understanding. As she's also super open and flexible in many ways. She's seriously been great to have as I've embarked on my Journey to reclaiming self-esteem. And I believe she's someone who is a very strong expertise in her field!
Jenna is an incredibly kind, compassionate person. I have been very grateful for her guidance through some very stressful times in my life. She listens to me and makes me feel very comfortable opening up. Talking to her makes me feel more confident and much less anxious about dealing with the turmoil I am going through as well as coping with the experiences of my past. I feel like I have made so much progress in a pretty short amount of time!
Jenna is highly competent and shares practical tools/strategies providing support through life's challenges. Appreciate her counsel and expertise. Thanks!

Appreciate how supportive and knowledgeable Jenna is! Thanks for being there, offering ongoing support, challenging me to think and work through obstacles. Thanks again!
Very comfortable and easy to talk to. Gives me the clinical advice and direction I need and also will tell me directly if the way I am trying to help myself is therapeutic or not.
Phenomenal at working with you to get down to what the issue is and working to make ones life better.
Great counselor. Supportive and offers timely strategies. Thank you!

Jenna is amazing and I would highly recommend her to any of my friends or family. She is consistently uplifting, considerate, and clearly cares about my emotional health and well-being. She has helped me overcome so much in such a short amount of time, I feel like she has made a significant impact in my life and I’m deeply grateful.

Jenna is sweet and understanding, she makes me feel very validated and like I am not crazy! she is easy to talk to and offers logical advice. I highly recommend her!
Jenna is a sensitive, empathetic and skilled counsellor. She is a very good listener, and understands my emotions and issues well. I have been in individual and couples counseling with Jenna, and have received clarifying and supportive guidance in my difficult times. She is encouraging and has a kind ear and I'd gladly recommend her as a counsellor.
I have had two counselors on BetterHelp, Jenna being the best out of both. She responds in a decent amount of time, listens to what I'm saying and offers sound advice. She doesnt just repeat back everything I say, she actually tries to get to know someone. She has definitely helped my anxiety level and finding ways to manage my stress. I'm honestly thankful that she became my counselor on here.
Super nice person. Helped me to better understand myself and my issues.
I really appreciate Jenna. She has been there for me through the worst time in my life. She gently guides me through each week with a new strategy to work on improving myself. She listens to me rant for a while hour if that's how I feel about that day. I don't know where I would be without her help, expertise and companionship. She is amazing.
Jenna has been an incredible counselor for me. I am so glad I discovered BetterHelp and was connected to her!
She's very understanding. I have only had one live session so far but unlike other therapists I've encountered, she allows me to control the conversation and talk about what I need to talk about. Looking forward to working with her more.
Professional, friendly and got to the core of my concerns in a very effective manner. In a nutshell, Jenna is great!
Jenna is a good listener and display a high level of professionalism and respect to help seekers.
Great experience and I'm most confident in my counselor.
I was only able to afford a month of this, but even in that amount of time my counselor has motivated me to make a difference in my life for the better and I'm really glad I took the chance to do this.
Jenna listened with compassion and was very knowledgeable with the issues I am currently dealing with and insightful. I would highly recommend Jenna.
Jenna is amazing. She’s helped me come so far in the last three months and I feel she’s only going to help me pursue an even more positive future. I can’t thank her enough.
