You’re a capable, resourceful adult others turn to but when your life stops making sense, who do you turn to? Hi, I’m Jennie and I’ve helped adults cope with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, work and caregiver stress. Creative and high-capacity people often find their way to me (neurodiversity welcomed). I supported individuals from varied backgrounds: grad students; farm-steading parents of young children; first responders, teachers and nurses; military family members; government employees and creatives. I understand both metropolitan “hustle culture” and rural/small town dynamics, each with its own strengths and demands.

I have been working in the field of mental health for over 30 years and am comfortable working with a wide range of issues. My approach with individuals is holistic, person centered, humanistic and strengths-based, seeing my role as a helpful guide as I work with individuals to navigate the sometimes rocky storms and transitions of life. Together we will identify what may be keeping you stuck and formulate a plan to build a bridge towards wellness. Working with individuals with chronic invisible illnesses such as Lyme Disease, Fibromyalgia, Arthritis, Chronic Fatigue, Anxiety, and Depression is an area of great passion for me.

My job is to help you let go of what isn't working for you anymore. I focus on your current issues but also on those longstanding patterns that surface again and again throughout the life span and cause unhappiness. My approach is interpersonal and client-centered, but I also incorporate concrete strategies for symptom alleviation.

As a therapist, I believe in autonomy and a client-centered approach. I am here to primarily remind you, or tell you for the first time, that you are not alone.

Finding that solution begins with making a personal decision to address what is holding you back and taking steps to evolve into the best version of yourself. If you were to wake up tomorrow and your current circumstances were no longer impacting your life, what would your world look like?

Now accepting new clients. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, facing a crisis, managing past trauma or looking for a sense of meaning and fulfillment, positive change is possible. I use an experiential approach believing that when clients truly understand themselves, they are better able to leverage their own inner wisdom and inherent strength to manage their lives the way they want to. The work we do together leads to increased clarity, a better sense of self and the ability to manage current and future challenges from a place of strength and compassion rather than from fear and frustration.
