Jennifer Schroeder, M.S., CADC
Certified alcohol & drug counselor (CADC) and founder of Schroeder Counseling. Providing court-approved counseling, education, and assessment services to individuals and families nationwide for over 20 years.
Professional Background
Jennifer Schroeder holds a Master of Science (M.S.) degree and is a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC). With over two decades of clinical experience, she has dedicated her career to providing accessible, evidence-based counseling and education services to individuals navigating the legal system.
After founding Schroeder Counseling in 2004, Jennifer built the practice from a local counseling office into a live online program serving clients nationwide. On request, the practice sends program information and completion verification to courts, probation officers, and attorneys.
Jennifer's clinical approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which she applies across all programs — from anger management and domestic violence education to substance abuse assessment and theft awareness education. She believes that meaningful behavioral change requires more than checking a box; it requires genuine engagement, self-reflection, and practical skill-building.
In September 2026, Jennifer completed Prevention Research Institute's Prime For Life® New Instructor Training, and she now teaches the Prime For Life class live on Zoom.
