About Autumn

Autumn Jarvis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Wisconsin with 13 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

She trained in social work and holds a Master of Social Work (MSW). Her professional background includes community mental health, county work, inpatient psychiatric hospital settings, Veterans Affairs, and outpatient clinics. This range of settings informs a practical approach to common concerns such as mood changes, substance use, and loss.

In sessions she uses methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She focuses on clear, straightforward work - identifying what feels stuck, noticing patterns, and trying small changes to improve day-to-day functioning.

Autumn pays attention to family-of-origin patterns such as attachment and abandonment issues when they show up in a person's life now. She also addresses related topics including blended family concerns, caregiver stress, body image, and communication problems.

Outside clinical work she is a parent who enjoys time with family and dogs, running, CrossFit, and simple favorite foods. The profile notes she balances therapy with another full-time role, so prospective clients should follow the listed scheduling steps to begin the matching process.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help when old family patterns or avoidance keep someone from living as they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It involves noticing unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and practicing different responses to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an open, respectful conversation where the therapist listens and follows the person's concerns rather than imposing a plan. This approach supports people who want to better understand patterns that started in their family of origin. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences, adjusting methods as needed over time. Confirm current session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy week, shortening a check-in when needed, avoiding travel time, or choosing sessions that better match their daily routine.
