It's hard being a person. We all struggle to some extent in fundamental areas of human life-- relationships, identity, work, destructive behaviors, the meaning of life itself. Satisfying marriage/committed relationships are a specific challenge faced by many. I work in both individual and couples therapy. There are many ways to approach human problems, including: how family of origin influences personality; one's relationship to one's thoughts and feelings; self-defeating beliefs, both conscious and unconscious; self-defeating behavior. I value thoughtfulness and compassion, working together, and recognizing your goals and ideas.

We welcome you. We will welcome you regardless of your present status; anxious, sad, angry, lonely, happy, questioning, depressed, lost or otherwise. We will welcome you regardless of your current family situation, relationship or marital status or lack thereof. We will welcome you if you have been to therapy in the past, are looking to come in for the first time, or have no idea what to expect. We will not judge you based upon your personal history, age, race, ethnic background, appearance, sexual orientation or gender identity. We welcome all beliefs, religions, spirituality, and affiliations. We welcome you.

Accepting new clients! I am passionate about creating a safe and collaborative space in counseling in which individuals can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, without judgement, so that we can work together to help identify your inner strengths, learn coping strategies, and cultivate the life you want to live.

With my clients, I build a therapeutic alliance that allows me to understand each client’s environment, challenges, and goals. The foundation for therapy is a collaborative, supportive, professional relationship with my client. Intersectional and feminist approaches are integral to my work. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate their identity and orientation.

As a therapist, I approach all of my work from a social justice framework. I enjoy working with clients from diverse backgrounds, including those struggling with chronic illness or dynamic disabilities. I work with clients to set realistic, attainable goals for treatment. I aim for transparency in everything that I do. I particularly enjoy supporting women, members of the LGBTQ community and clients from other marginalized groups. I am culturally Deaf and fluent in ASL, and as such, I serve many Deaf clients. However, spoken English is my native language, so many of my clients are also hearing.

Hello and welcome! You are so courageous for considering the next step in your healing journey. My name is Jennifer (Jen) Towns (she/her). It is my personal and professional belief that everyone can discover their most authentic and successful self. I invite you to a safe space where you can learn to trust, speak your truth, and realize your potential for emotional growth and change. ​I practice trauma-informed integrative therapy - blending somatic body work, EMDR, IFS / ego-state parts work, and a general recognition of the impact of traumas and attachment wounds on ourselves and our relationships.

I believe that everyone should feel equally welcome in therapy, so no matter what you bring, I will meet you without judgment, and we will find solutions together. I believe that people heal through being fully heard and understood, and solving problems collaboratively. I work with a wide variety of issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues (both monogamous and non-monogamous), ADHD, substance addiction, sexual identity and gender identity concerns, and others. I take an anti-racist, intersectional feminist, LGBTQIA-affirming, body-positive, kink-aware approach to therapy.

First and foremost, thank you for seeking out therapy. Choosing to be emotionally open with someone you don’t know can be extremely difficult. You might feel skeptical or anxious, like it’s a waste of time or I’ll judge you for what you tell me. You don’t know me yet, but please trust me when I say that neither of those are true. Regardless of your reason for seeing me, I am your advocate. I will stand with you and help you accomplish whatever it is you want to accomplish. Think of me like your well-informed sidekick.

I aim to highlight each client's individual strengths and existing skills to build off of. My desire is to create a space where you feel you can be open, and your successes are celebrated.

My work with clients often focuses on addressing trauma and loss/grief, clarifying values, finding meaning and purpose, and increasing a sense of belonging. I am a Certified Trauma Professional (CTP). The purpose of therapy is to have an affirming place to safely explore and grow in ways defined and determined by you. I consider how identities (gender identity, race, sexuality, class, (dis)ability, religion, etc.) shape your experiences and how they help us understand what wellness means to you.
