The focus of my practice is helping women who are dissatisfied with their careers or personal relationships. Managing stress in our personal and professional lives is so important, as is maintaining a healthy work-life balance. I know how demanding the corporate world can be. I'm originally an attorney, and practiced law for five years before making my
career
change. I now specialize in helping women with their
career
and relationship concerns. I provide remote therapy, coaching and consultation exclusively via phone and video, which allows you the convenience of working with me from your home or office.

Jenn Graus
Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC

My experience in education, outpatient hospital settings, young adult
career counseling
and intergenerational living allows me to work with clients in a wide range of both age and life circumstance.
In working with my clients, we explore what holds meaning, what patterns/habits work and no longer work in their life as well as who/what helps them create balance and motivation. When clients find that some of their reactions and emotional responses are no longer having the same effect, we work together to allow their authentic self to take initiative and risks as they engage in relationships with a more healthy, centered, and intentional stance. I value and welcome my clients’ spiritual journey and faith background and the variety of practices that aid in healing and restoring integration and connection in our work together.

Motherhood is a long process with a lot of twists and turns. Here we provide counseling to women of color who are navigating the demands of motherhood. Many moms say they have a hard time with work-life balance--they can't seem to find the right formula. Being a mother is hard, but there are ways you can learn to prioritize yourself and still give your family the love and care they need. It is important for mothers to fill their cups, so they can be their best selves for their children and partners. Moms that engage in regular self-care and learn how to identify their stressors.

I specialize in relationships and communication, life transitions, dating,
career counseling
, anxiety and stress management, millennials and emerging adults, family conflict, and the gap between values and spirituality / religion.
Are you going through a hard life transition? Do you need relationship support? Do you feel stuck, anxious, and in need of a space for personal reflection? As anxiety builds, it has a way of controlling our life; our mood, self-esteem, relationships, work, school, and sleep all suffer. My holistic approach addresses clients as a "whole," and we dive into how you feel presently, your future expectations, and how your past contributes to your current feelings. We reflect on who you are, the environment you're surrounded by, and where there is opportunity for change.

I pursued a
career
in therapy because I believe that holistic healing is possible. Taking care of your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual wellness, enables you to take care of others, and live a life of joy. With a background in the arts, storytelling, and visual media, I integrate the power of story in the narrative of your life, past present and future. Where are you right now? How has right now been impacted by your past, and what is a vision and purpose for who you want to be? What do you want your life to look like in the future? We can work on all this together.

I have supported and guided young adults struggling with
career
options, managing work/life balance, and imposter syndrome.
I am a bilingual and bi-cultural therapist who values the strength of a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship. You might feel overwhelmed with finding a therapist if you are already feeling stuck. It can be hard to find someone to disclose your feelings to a "new person" during your time of vulnerability. My warm, empathetic, and non-directive approach has helped those new to therapy feel comfortable disclosing their most difficult emotions and experiences. My approach is collaborative, where I can guide you to find the right tools to feel in control of your life again.

I also bring a background in Talent Acquisition & Recruitment, which I integrate into my work with clients grappling with
career
-related issues.
The willingness to hold a mirror to ourselves in therapy is no small task. It requires courage, vulnerability, patience, practice and persistence. Sometimes avoiding the mirror altogether can wind up more exhausting than looking at it head on. The key is learning how to start greeting your reflection with curiosity and compassion rather than judgment. This may sound easier said than done, but I can help you with that. I strive to provide a warm, accepting, and insightful space in which to unpack whatever is coming up for you.
