Hi, I’m Jen. Are you struggling with the stress of relationships, parenting, family dynamics, the pressures of life, trauma, or understanding your emotions? Are you looking for a caring, non-judgmental person to talk to? With a philosophy of strength based, humanistic, person-centered therapy, I will help you to rediscover your internal strengths by providing caring, empathetic and genuinely supportive therapy. As Co-Founder of Illuminate and Founder of Jeni's House: Where Hearts Bloom I am able to offer individual & couples services for self awareness and compassion and supportive services for community connection and belonging.
My approach to therapy is offering a space where you feel heard, validated and are free to express and feel your emotions. Using empathy to listen deeply, accurately and non-judgmentally provides illumination and heaIing. Are you ready to explore your emotions, increase awareness of yourself and increase your self compassion?
With experience working with children, youth, parents, men, women, couples, veterans, military spouses and families my hope for you is that by taking the first step on your journey you will start to experience immediate relief like others who I have worked with over the last 20 years have experienced. I would be honored to join with you.
Take the first step to help. Call or Jennifer Braman now - (231) 824-7013
