Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or simply overwhelmed by your life's circumstances? Is taking more and more out of you to get through the day? And it seems no progress is made, nor things are getting better? You are finding yourself maybe overeating, worrying to the point of making yourself sick, overdrinking, overspending, just to name a few. You are searching for a counselor who gets you and can help. As somebody who has been there several times in her own life, I want to encourage you by saying that you are at the right place. Therapy works!

Life doesn't always go as planned. Sometimes illness, loss, or an unexpected transition can leave you feeling like a stranger to yourself. These experiences are more common than they appear, especially when you're someone who looks like they're holding it together on the outside while quietly carrying something heavy within. You don't have to carry it alone.
My approach draws from Meaning-Centered Psychotherapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma-informed somatic work, and the neuroscience of grief. I offer in-person therapy in Austin and work remotely with clients across New York and Texas.

Fact: we all have blind spots that make us feel a little… off. My goal is to help you examine your past, present, and/or future so you can navigate your life with greater clarity. Together, we'll discover how prior life events shape the way you engage with the world, identify the ambiguous feelings you’re struggling to articulate, and set purposeful hopes, goals, and expectations for whatever lies ahead.

I specialize in family therapy. Whether new parents navigating raising young ones or old pros facing the challenges of their growing children, families can bring out their healthiest dynamics through therapy. I believe in pushing shifts across whole systems for meaningful and enduring change. When we can be our full authentic selves and communicate that self to others, healing and relational repair can take place. I strive to create a therapeutic space of respect, acceptance, and curiosity to empower clients to work through even the most challenging of life’s moments.

As a psychotherapist, my role is to help facilitate and support you, the client, in discovering, processing, and most importantly, deciding if changing some strategies you have needed to implement in negotiating your life is a next step in your treatment. It can take time to identify influencing factors in the problems experienced in life. Through the development of a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship, we will identify issues, if not already clear to you, and take action in the therapeutic relationship itself to develop the relational, emotional, and or behavioral skills you determine need to be the focus of your treatment.

Are you navigating a relationship where anxiety speaks louder than love and belonging? I help individuals, couples, partners, and families with issues and topics related to infidelity, jealousy, sex and kink, grief and loss, and relational/spiritual trauma, especially if those issues intersect with LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC identities and/or non-traditional relational dynamics including polyamory, non-monogamy, single parent, and blended families. My therapeutic approach to relationships is centered on liberation and the nurturing of a mutual interdependence that respects the autonomy and divinity of each person.

I'm a relational therapist specializing in treating grief & loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, & parent-child relationships with adolescents & adults. Feeling stuck in a particular area of life such as your relationships, school/work, identity, or emotions? Sometimes we find ourselves repeating old habits that no longer serve us. I often work with individuals experiencing issues around shame and self-worth, who view themselves much harsher than the rest of the world. I offer room to explore these patterns with compassionate curiosity and supportive guidance for you to start trying something different – space for a new narrative.

Therapy for the people who grew up too fast, felt too much, or never quite felt like enough. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, childhood and developmental trauma, and the attachment patterns that show up in every relationship. Healing is possible — even if you've doubted that for a long time.

I research and write about the psychological and spiritual development of aging women and work almost exclusively with older women (50+). I help women with anxiety, depression, empty nest, trauma, and mental illness, but I also have expertise in caretaking, chronic illness, and death and dying. Reviewing the free Kindle sample of my book, OMM 365, on Amazon can help you see if I am a good fit for you. I also have expertise/lower-fee option for women with current/past experiences working in the sex industry (any age; dancing, escort, trafficking). Please view my web site www.jenniferwestrom.com for more information.

You may understand many of your struggles intellectually but still feel unable to change the patterns underneath them. Anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, shutdown, relationship difficulties or substance use may be signs of deeper trauma, neurodivergence or unresolved experiences. You may have received several diagnoses and still wonder, “Why does life feel this difficult?” Together, we will slow things down, make sense of your experiences and identify what is keeping you stuck—without reducing you to a label.

My ideal clients are college students, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, OCD patterns, disordered eating, or relationship stress. Many are high-functioning and responsible but feel stuck in overthinking, perfectionism, control, or family conflict. They may be in a transition—college, independence, relationships, or changing family roles—and want relief from anxiety, more confidence, clearer boundaries, and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

In meeting individuals and families, my focus is to gain insight into the complex history of each person. After building a therapeutic relationship, I assess what modality would align with their specific needs. I like to set realistic and attainable goals with each client that I work with. Much of my past and current clientele has consisted of teens and college aged students working through transitions. I gather much of my experience from working as a recruiter for more than 15 years.

Feeling stuck in the same arguments? Many couples I work with are exhausted from trying to fix their relationship but ending up in the same patterns. Maybe you've sought support but really just ended up venting at one another, or you've read the books but can't actually put the advice into practice. You want real tools, not just insight. You want to feel heard by your partner, not just understood by a therapist. Let's move beyond the cycle of blame and unresolved conflicts and toward building genuine connection and understanding.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate supervised by Dr. Gregory Scott Sparrow, LPC-S. I work with an array of purposeful individuals that include creatives, performers, educators, caregivers, fellow therapists, entrepreneurs, executives, visionaries and students.

Motherhood wasn’t meant to be done alone. And yet so many women feel lonely and ill-equipped for the job. Whether your a first-time mom in the trenches of postpartum, years into your parenting journey and wondering who you are now, or navigating parenting with ADHD and feeling totally overwhelmed, you don’t need a blueprint for how someone else on the internet “mastered motherhood”. You need the space and support to discover your own version of this journey that feels sustainable, and yes, even joyful, for you.
