Hi, I’m Dr. Jermeckia Sandefer, LPC-MHSP, but you can call me Dr. J! I like to think of therapy as a reset button for your mind—a chance to pause, reflect, and untangle the thoughts that feel like they’re running a marathon with no finish line. Life has a way of throwing unexpected plot twists, and sometimes, it feels like you’re stuck in a story you didn’t sign up for. That’s where I come in—to help you rewrite the narrative, regain your footing, and navigate whatever challenges come your way.
In our sessions, you can expect a space where you feel heard, supported, and maybe even find a moment to exhale. Some days, that means deep conversations about what’s weighing you down. Other days, it’s about finding small victories and learning to celebrate them. No pressure for perfection—just progress, healing, and figuring things out one step at a time.
Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you because you’re not broken. It’s about understanding yourself, discovering new ways to cope, and finding peace in the midst of life’s chaos. Whether you’re facing anxiety, life transitions, eating disorder recovery, or just need a place to process it all, I’m here to walk alongside you.
