Getting to know Jennifer Mcartor
Hi! My name is Jennifer McArtor, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of South Florida. I’m based in Charlottesville, Virginia, and provide telehealth appointments to people in Virginia and Florida. I work with adults over the age of 18 and specialize in helping people through transitions and change, depression, anxiety, and stress management. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients develop and increase coping skills. I use a strengths-based approach and enjoy helping people identify their own unique strengths.
My approach
My approach varies based on the needs of the client. I am a generalist who primarily utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; however, I sometimes incorporate techniques from other modalities as needed.
My focus
I work with adults over 18 and specialize in anxiety, depression, and life transitions or changes. I strive to help people develop healthier coping skills while decreasing their symptoms. I believe we all have the power to challenge automatic negative thoughts, face anxious thoughts, and learn to approach life with positive self-regard, self-compassion, and grace.
My communication style
My communication style is warm, empathetic, relaxed, and personable. I strive to create a safe environment where people feel free to be themselves.
My journey to mental healthcare
I began my career as a social worker more than 25 years ago. I found that I enjoy helping people and discovering strengths in them that others may not see. Seeing people succeed, smile, relax, or use the coping skills we discuss is what drives me to continue in this field.
My goals for you
My approach to goal setting is to allow clients to describe what they want to achieve and then work with them to develop the steps to get there—to define what they want to accomplish in our time together.
