About Jennifer

Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) Jennifer Warthen has 26 years of experience in mental health care in South Carolina. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English. She does not accept international clients.

Jennifer helps people who are juggling parenting demands alongside their own stress and anxiety. She supports caregivers who want clearer communication strategies and practical ways to handle behavioral concerns. She also works with adolescents and young adults who have attention differences and social skill challenges.

Her clinical background includes a BS in Psychology from The College of Charleston and an MSW from the University of South Carolina. She is working toward a Special Education teaching certificate and holds the LISW-CP credential. Jennifer has long experience in school and clinical settings and brings that perspective into sessions.

In practice she uses evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods and structured social skills training. She applies hands-on strategies that parents and young people can try between meetings. Sessions often include step-by-step exercises, role-play, and clear behavior plans.

Jennifer also teaches the PEERS curriculum, a published program from UCLA for children and adolescents with autism spectrum differences and ADHD. That work emphasizes social skills practice and real-world feedback. She aims to give concrete tools people can use day to day.

How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions

Jennifer draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build step-by-step behavior changes. CBT helps with anxiety, panic symptoms, low self-esteem, and stress by focusing on small, practical experiments and thought reframing.

She also uses structured social skills training such as the PEERS curriculum. That approach breaks social interactions into teachable skills, offers role-play practice, and provides feedback to improve conversations and peer relationships for adolescents and young people with ADHD or autism spectrum differences.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will assess needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. Clients and the therapist review progress and adapt techniques together as they learn what works best.
