Do any of these sound familiar: "it will always be this way" "you will never heal" "you are wrong/broken/damaged/not good enough"? So often we believe the lies we've heard, which leaves us feeling like our pain and brokenness define us. We can easily feel "stuck" in parts of our story; as though we are unable to move forward. My work focuses on processing and challenging the negative thoughts that have become the lens through which we view ourselves and the world around us, along with developing healthy new patterns for living.

Hi, my name is Jennifer Strider and I want to help. As your therapist, I can't stop the waves, but I can stand beside you in the storm and help you find your way through. In a world that constantly pushes us to do more, be more, and work harder, it’s easy to feel lost—adrift in the ocean with no clear path to shore.
If you're feeling drained from trying to stay afloat, you don’t have to do it alone. Through therapy, I’ll support you on a journey of self-discovery, helping you build the skills and resilience to navigate life’s challenges with greater ease and confidence. Call or email me today to schedule an appointment!

As a former foster child who entered foster care at the age of 12 and aged out, I have a passion for serving children and adolescents who have similar experiences. However, this does not limit my empathy for serving individuals and groups who are committed to improving their mental health. I am an older sister of 10 siblings (8 of them being all boys) who have assisted with my development in the skills, abilities, and patience that aids in therapeutic relationships with children and adolescents. I am committed to building resilience and fortitude while improving one's mental health and well-being.

Feeling stuck? Stressed? Counseling may be your answer. Working together, I help my clients find relief from their emotional pain and assist them in finding a path they can feel good about. Superior therapy is dependent on the quality of the relationship between therapist and client. I prefer to treat my clients the way I want to be treated by my health care providers; with respect for their time, a warm personality, and with a positive attitude. Please note I formerly practiced under the surname Bressler.

I offer counseling for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, and women's issues. Because I understand that life goes on despite our thoughts and feelings, I feel it's important to be a guide and a soundboard to help you address your issues head-on while maintaining and sustaining new and better habits of self-care, mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness and distress tolerance.

My life experiences have been too numerous to count. I've had loved ones die, disappointments, medical problems, divorce, betrayals, and more reasons to celebrate than I deserve. I have been extremely blessed by Jesus Christ my Savior, who is the source of all my strength. With God's help, I have accomplished things I never could have imagined. My greatest joy has been raising my three daughters. God gave me wisdom and taught me to have compassion for others in their times of struggles, trials, and difficulties. He taught me to see others through His eyes. He is my constant companion and counselor. Jesus is all the world to me.

Am I where I want to be right now? Am I truly living the life I was destined to live? At some point in life we ask ourselves these questions, and ponder how to fulfill them. As a therapist, and more importantly, a human being, I'm here to help, or simply offer a safe place to unload, be heard, and to find meaning. Together, we can learn to manage the range of emotions experienced while navigating life's ups & downs. Whether it be the transition from high school or various stages in adulthood, together we'll look at the impacts of your past and the promises of the future, while remaining firmly grounded in the present.

The world is a bit nuts. Sometimes, it's not you; it's them. Maybe you're feeling misunderstood. Maybe a trauma led to feeling distress. Maybe it's not an event but how you experience it. Maybe you want meaning and purpose. Any of those are painful; they lead to self-doubt, distraction, depression, anxiety, stress, insomnia, feelings of loss, shame, and that you’re adrift. I've felt these feelings before and it's no fun. You deserve contentment now. I have lots of tools to help with this, but ultimately, I simply listen with an open mind, compassion and curiosity. Most of my work is with men and men's issues, but I see all genders.
