Jena Ourso, LCSW

Jena Ourso is an LCSW based in Louisiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, trauma, mood disorders, and challenges related to ADHD and autism. Jena also supports people with relationship and parenting concerns, communication struggles, and questions tied to sexual orientation or kink. The first step is a conversation to see what matters most to the client. Jena approaches work with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions focus on practical skills and honest dialog. Jena tailors sessions to each person's needs and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Clients can expect a collaborative process where therapist and client set goals together. Jena draws from several therapy styles so people can try different ways of working. The aim is to build tools that help in day-to-day life. With 11 years of experience, Jena has worked across a range of concerns including substance use, codependency, chronic illness, and grief. Jena is comfortable talking about sexual health, BDSM and kink related questions, and LGBTQIA issues without judgment. People who choose Jena typically want clear communication, practical approaches, and a respectful atmosphere. She explains methods in plain language and focuses on what the client wants to change. Signing up begins with a short questionnaire and scheduling step.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting ruled by them and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to shift them, which helps with mood, anxiety, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with trust, intimacy, and communication difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. People can try approaches and adjust the plan as they learn what helps most.

Confirm the specific session options before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy life. It also lets people choose shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when that helps with bandwidth or comfort. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions to match daily routines and goals.
