What is meaningful and important to you? This is different for everyone and can change for anyone in a given day. My approach to therapy is guided by the things you hold as valuable, and what they mean for you; all while using a trauma-informed and queer affirming framework. I strive to provide a safe space without judgment. I have worked with people of all ages who have survived trauma & I also have experience working with LGBTQ+ folks in health related issues, coming out, violent experiences, internalized homophobia/transphobia, transitioning, adverse military experiences, & building resilience, etc.

Hello, I have 25 years of experience having worked with various populations and issues. I believe that life is a journey that presents to us constant experiences for learning and growth to become your best self, whatever that means to you. Change is challenging as one becomes comfortable in the uncomfortable. But as you become aware of the routines and patterns that you continue with that are not working for you, you will be moving toward making lifelong changes that not only affect you positively but also your relationships with others. Change is possible, anxiety and depression are manageable and you are well worth your time.

"SAFE HAVEN" was the exact words one of my first clients used to describe our time together. It was this sense of safety and connection that allowed her to explore life events that had previously kept her: isolated, fearful and angry. Our work together, incorporated directive based and open therapeutic art-making to help her share the burden of her trauma, understand how she was feeling in relation to what she had experienced and to facilitate forming a new sense of direction.

In this increasingly wacky world, life can happen in a way that doesn't always seem to work. Change may be scary, leaving you feeling lost without a roadmap. I work to create a safe, supportive environment, free from judgment so you can show up and put whatever you're thinking and feeling on the table. We navigate together - exploring and sorting out your strengths and inner dialogue to harness your power (it's in there!). My goal is to help you reduce feelings of stress, sadness, and confusion, open your mind to possibilities, and give you concrete, practical new tools and strategies to get you back on your best path.

I'm Jen and my pronouns are she/they! I utilize an existential approach to therapy that incorporates mindfulness based practices and focuses on your individual needs and goals for therapy. My practice is non-judgmental, trauma-informed, and collaborative in an effort to cultivate trust, safety, and respect. I value all dimensions of human diversity and I am an accomplice to the LGBTQAI+ community.

My focus is helping clients connect the physical and emotional components of healing. I am trained in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction which is an evidence-based practice that teaches clients to cope with pain, anxiety, sleep, stress, addiction, and depression. I have worked with individuals and families for over 9 years and have seen the physical toll that emotions can take on a person’s life. My hope is to guide my patients back to a healthier lifestyle through a combination of approaches. I believe that every individual is unique and will design each treatment plan according to the client’s goals.

With 9 years of experience working with all ages, I specialize in anxiety, depression, codependency, trauma, divorce, perfectionism, relationship issues, self-esteem, aging, women’s issues and life transitions. I particularly enjoy individuals who are open-minded, motivated, and willing to do the work while trusting the therapeutic process. It is so important to be willing to try new things by venturing out of your comfort zone during our time together. By not having to rely strictly on medication to mask your issues, therapy teaches you to cope with life’s struggles, and thus change your fearful view of the world.

Seeking support during a time of need shows courage and strength. I provide a calm, compassionate, and nurturing space so that we may work together to find happiness and peace, whatever your struggles may be.

Sports counseling for mental health peak performance. I specialize in counseling athletes at all levels - student-athletes, amateur/professional athletes, as well as former athletes, in balancing mind, body, and sport for optimal mental health and well-being. As well as anyone who is seeking to improve performance in their fields, such as business executives, medical professionals, actors, dancers, and more. I provide individual counseling that focuses on establishing goals and developing a plan to build sustainable practices for achieving peak performance in sports and in life.

Hi there! Welcome to my page. I am a licensed psychologist specializing in the treatment of children, adolescents and families. I am also an enthusiastic practitioner of Emotional Freedom Technique (a.k.a "tapping”) - a technique use with both adults and children alike to neutralize or eliminate overwhelming negative emotions or physical symptoms. In addition, I practice techniques such as mindfulness, visualization, and relaxation. I primarily provide short-term, solution-focused therapy, educational evaluations, and parent consultation.

I believe that you are the expert on your experience, and it is my passion to be with you and support your unique process of growth and healing.

My primary clinical focus is working with clients experiencing trauma (PTSD/C-PTSD), anxiety, and OCD, among a host of other issues. I have a special affinity with helping budding and established mental health professionals, but enjoy helping people from all backgrounds and walks of life. My primary goal in therapy is to extend a sense of unconditional positive regard to my clients - a space for them to safety explore and heal.

It takes courage to reach out to another for support with life events, stress, and relationships. My goal in working with you is to provide support by observing and better utilizing your strengths while identifying what is getting in your way. Together we will explore how you can better manage symptoms of trauma, depression, low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship stress while recognizing harmful coping mechanisms and behaviors that are holding you back, such as substance misuse and disordered eating.

I will be a source of honest support, deep listening, understanding, change processes and, at times, direct advice. I have a passion for working with people to create joyful, more satisfying, balanced, and interesting lives. The purpose of therapy is to offer a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment to find perspective and solve problems. LGBTQA+ friendly, anyone is safe here. I have worked with clients with mild issues and those with lifelong patterns that require a deeper process. If you find the strength to bring yourself here, we will collaborate to help you live a better life.

Counseling is about creating a safe environment for a client, both an actual comfortable "real space" and a place of trust in our hearts and heads. This needs to be a non-judgmental space where a person from any walk of life can feel at home and welcomed. The process is about compassionate listening, collaboration, and creating a place where healthy growth can happen over time. Most of my training focuses in on the use of cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based therapy techniques. After completing my graduate training at Tulane University, I received advanced training in trauma by Dr. Aaron Beck.

I have a passion for connecting and helping people reach balance, direction, and live a more fulfilling life. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families. I have worked with people from various backgrounds with anxiety, depression, grief, stages of life, trauma, severe mental illness, and marital/relationship, and identity issues. Therapy is highly effective, but requires openness, patience, and dedication! I would love to work with you and help you on this journey called “Life.” I am currently taking new clients in person and through telehealth(zoom).
