I am an experienced mental health therapist providing individual, family and couples and relationship counseling.

CURRENTLY ONLINE TELEHEALTH/Phone SESSIONS ONLY We all face times when we are having difficulty coping with stress in our lives, when life's burdens feel overwhelming. You may be struggling with parenting challenges, facing a troubled marriage or dysfunctional family relationships, grieving a loss, dealing with health or employment problems, suffering from depression or anxiety. Perhaps you repeat unsuccessful patterns of behavior and need help finding a way forward. I will work together with you to build on your strengths and help understand and resolve areas of conflict.

Often in life we can lose sight of who we are or who we have the potential to be.  We are impacted by past experiences, which influence our sense of self and our interactions with others.  Gaining insight into how our past shapes us allows us to have control and understanding over our thoughts, feelings, and actions today. I specialize in working with people who have been impacted by trauma, as well families and children who have experienced adoption or guardianship.  I also provide parenting support to parents who are struggling to connect with or understand their child and practical ways to improve your relationship. 

Finding a therapist can be an overwhelming task. You don't want to pick some name off a list. If you are looking for help, you might feel at the end of your rope, you don't know what else to do, like nobody understands or "gets" you, or that you need some simple guidance. We can help. Therapy isn't magic. Most people intellectually know what they need to do, they just need guidance, encouragement, or new skills to get there. *JENNIFER ONLY PRACTICES AT THE OCEAN TWP OFFICE*

Life is hard, working as a therapist to help clients overcome obstacles and achieve their optimal potential is the most rewarding part of my practice. I believe in client focused treatment, where therapist and client collaborate in the healing process. Mindful attunement can cultivate self awareness and self compassion. Depending on the goodness of fit, I am well trained and use a variety of treatments, including, Rational Emotive Therapy, CBT and DBT. I incorporate psychodrama when appropriate and beneficial to the Client.

**Currently not taking new clients**Transitional periods of becoming a parent, having addiction in the family, changes in a relationship, divorce, etc., can leave us feeling drained, restless, overwhelmed and sometimes even angry. Do you have anxious thoughts that keep you up at night? Do you struggle with negative self-talk? Do you feel alone even when you are in a group of people? Do you hide behind false cheerfulness? Do you put yourself down on what you 'should' or 'should not' have done? Do you often compare yourself to others?

Life holds challenges. Sometimes we can get through them on our own; sometimes we need a little help and someone to talk to. My goal is to help you through those times by providing the safe, caring, collaborative, non-judgmental environment you need to move past those difficulties and become the person you always knew you could be.

Wanting to make a change in your life, however big or small, can be a very difficult but important realization. Working through options, concerns, and even generating new possibilities in a caring, confidential, nonjudgmental environment are all part of the therapy process.
