Jen Riffe
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
I approach therapy in a very practical manner by setting goals and building skills with clients to make certain the work proceeds in a way that makes significant positive changes. I think my clients would tell you that I check in often to affirm that the work we are doing together is having the intended results for why they chose to enter therapy. I have worked in many settings over the past 30 years including schools, residential settings, community action projects and a psychiatric office. My experience includes working with older adolescents, adults, families, parenting, exploring the middle years and growing older gracefully.

(I am currently full and not accepting new clients.) Are you finding that your life isn't what you envisioned? Are you feeling depleted, anxious, stuck, parenting a challenging child, or wondering who you are? Are you looking for a safe, nurturing environment with a highly skilled practitioner? Especially an authentic person who believes that the process can and should include laughter? Working for over a decade as a psychotherapist clients are often pleasantly surprised with the wide array of tools and experience I draw on.

My focus is to guide you to your deepest knowing to identify and heal what needs healing in order to change patterns of thinking, feeling, behaving, or outer circumstances that are not helpful in your life. I believe that with the desire and bravery to explore and engage in this process, we all can shift in peaceful, loving ways. If this sounds of interest, I'd be happy to connect and go from there.

I love working with youth age 9 and over, and adults as well, but my specialty is really adolescent youth. I offer non-mental health services for youth too - see accelerateyouth.org I treat people with a variety of problems recognizing that often their struggle and symptoms reflect the fact they want to live their life more in line with their values but are struggling to do so. I may help a person with past trauma or current stressors, but I also focus on helping them experience fulfillment by finding a way to make their life and the way they live reflect their true values.

AFFORDABLE COUNSELING and EVALUATIONS. Do you struggle with negative, ineffective thought patterns? Perhaps these thought patterns are brought on by anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma or poor quality of life? Perhaps they are brought on by ineffective stress management, unhealthy communication, poor relationships? It is my belief that our patterns of behavior are heavily influenced by our thoughts, feelings and emotions. These patterns often keep us stuck and unable to move forward. I can help you get unstuck, increase your quality of life and move into your highest and best self. I can throw in a little humor as well!

Thank you for your interest in my practice. After completing my medical training in 1972 and, subsequently, after practicing medicine and teaching medical students and residents, I became interested in counseling/psychotherapy and underwent years of additional, intensive, advanced, post-doctoral level training in my present chosen field. While I no longer prescribe medication, I feel that my combined training and clinical experience have made me uniquely qualified to view and address problems of my patients/clients from more unified, holistic, and both psychological and biological perspectives.
