About Jennifer

Jennifer Aguero is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 16 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, and feelings of guilt and shame. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical ways to move through painful emotions.

Jennifer uses a mix of traditional and experiential methods. She combines client-centered listening with body-focused and mindfulness techniques. Hypnotherapy may be included when appropriate. The aim is to help people notice how thoughts, sensations, and behavior connect and to try different ways of responding.

Her approach emphasizes a direct, collaborative relationship. Conversations are meant to be clear and grounded. She adapts interventions to each person rather than following one single method.

Jennifer has experience across age groups from her clinical work, and she names trauma, grief, and survivors among her main areas. She also addresses concerns like eating and body image, chronic pain and illness, codependency, and forgiveness. Guilt and shame are specifically listed among the issues she helps people face.

Practical goals tend to include reducing the immediate burden of strong emotions, improving communication and relationship skills, and finding daily strategies that fit real life. People who come for help may expect sessions that blend talking, breathing or mindfulness, and guided somatic attention.

How her approaches translate to online work

Jennifer often draws from client-centered therapy, mindfulness therapy, and somatic therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy centers on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can clarify what they want to change. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention to thoughts and sensations to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions. Somatic therapy looks at bodily sensations and movement to help shift stuck patterns linked to trauma or persistent shame.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client discuss needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods to see what fits. That collaborative testing helps shape sessions over time rather than committing to one single path up front.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel. It can also let people use mindfulness and body-focused exercises in the moment of everyday life, which can make practice feel more practical and immediate.
