Looking to create positive change in your life with guidance and support? I’m Jennifer Sims, LPC, with over 20 years of experience helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, grief, relational challenges, substance use, and more. I integrate techniques from CBT, Schema-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy, and I also provide faith-based counseling for those who wish to incorporate their Christian faith. Known for my warm, empathetic, and strength-based approach, I help clients—and couples—explore growth, build resilience, and move toward a hopeful, fulfilling future.
I am known for a warm, relaxed, empathetic approach to counseling; helping you explore ways to make the changes in your life that will allow you to look forward to the future with hope and encouragement. I work with clients from a strength-based, positive and affirming approach, helping you to feel inspired to succeed in whatever you want to focus on!
I work with a wide range of issues including: depression, anxiety, unresolved emotional issues, grief and loss, relational/family concerns, and substance abuse. I also love providing counseling to couples as well. I look forward to meeting with you and learning more about how I can encourage you during this time.
