About Jennifer
Jennifer Gleizer is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress and anxiety, addictions, relationship and family problems, and coping with life changes. She also addresses concerns like guilt and shame, forgiveness, codependency, and communication problems.
Her sessions focus on clear, practical conversation. She listens to what matters most and helps people name the patterns that cause pain. Conversations aim to connect everyday choices to how someone feels now, not to lecture or judge.
Jennifer uses a mix of approaches to get concrete results. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories someone tells about themselves and whether those stories still fit. Solution-Focused Therapy highlights small steps that change how a day goes. Internal Family Systems addresses inner parts that conflict or carry strong emotions.
She guides people through relationship challenges such as infidelity, divorce, commitment worries, and family-of-origin issues. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, substance use concerns, and questions about sexuality and life purpose. Sessions tend to be straightforward and action-oriented while allowing time for deeper reflection.
Sessions are conducted in English and reflect California practice. Jennifer asks about immediate concerns, current goals, and what a manageable next step might look like. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled.
Approaches used in online sessions
Jennifer commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy during online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce stress and anxiety. Narrative Therapy helps people notice the stories they tell about themselves and consider alternative, less blaming versions of those stories.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jennifer will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize cognitive skills, story work, solution-focused steps, or internal parts work from Internal Family Systems as needed.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as they are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let someone join a session without being on camera if that helps them focus. Jennifer will work with each person to choose a rhythm and format that fits daily life.
