Hi I’m Jenn and I’m happy you came across my page to see if we’re a good fit. I’m an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a strong background in medical social work. I am passionate about working with individuals and their caregivers, adjusting and dealing with illness, stress management, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.

I believe that everyone deserves to be seen/heard, and has the potential for growth. I am passionate about leading people through various transitions in their lives. Using a guided and empathetic approach, I'm ready to empower you through our sessions together, helping you overcome whatever is holding back your full potential - whether it's a mental health issue or general life stressor. I intend on working with you to provide you the tools needed to navigate any issues/stressors that may be impacting your current daily functioning and quality of life.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with a strong clinical background helping those struggling with addictions issues, mood disorders, and life transitions. I believe each human being has worth and value. I practice by working collaboratively with each client, and will promote this in our work together.

Life is full of stressors, whether unexpected or planned. It is my goal to provide a safe, warm, supportive and judgement-free space for you to feel heard and understood. We will work collaboratively to build the necessary skills to help you face and overcome these daily stressors or mental health issues that may impact your overall functioning.

I believe everyone deserves to be heard. But not everyone is given the opportunity or the space to do so. As a therapist, I want to provide a safe space for you to be... well, you.

When the last time someone really listened to you? When was the last time you truly felt understood? If you're struggling to put your needs first, I can be your guide to help you navigate through your feelings and thoughts. With 16 years of counseling experience, I specialize in treating individuals, couples and families that struggle with Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, Past Trauma, Relationships, Intimacy Issues, Sexuality, and Stress with the compassion and dignity they deserve.

I understand that it can be difficult to make the decision to seek counseling and to find a therapist that you feel most comfortable with. My ultimate goal is to provide a safe, therapeutic space for clients to process, offer guidance, instill hope, and assist with strengthening one’s toolbox to navigate life’s challenges.

What happens when you sit at home at night and the world quiets down around you? Do you feel uncomfortable in your own skin? Do you feel as though you’re not at ease with where you are in life? So many of us struggle with this uneasiness inside of us that we don’t know exactly how to handle. The uneasiness leads us to make decisions that end up being counterproductive in our life. Whether it comes down to anxiety, addiction, codependency, impulsive shopping/eating or any other destructive behavior, we can help you work through these experiences and accomplish all your goals!

Finding someone who truly recognizes the unique nature of your struggles can be challenging. I believe that effective therapy must be tailored to the individual as there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all method of counseling. My approach recognizes that the strength of the therapeutic bond is a prerequisite for meaningful change to occur. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, interpersonal strife, or trauma, I will take every effort to make you feel safe, supported, and heard.

Beginning your journey towards improving your mental wellbeing can be overwhelming but my approach to therapy is to meet you where you are and support your healing. Therapy provides you with a safe, non-judgmental space to process and feel heard while supporting you to gain the means and tools to cope with life. I have been trained through a multicultural perspective and my therapeutic style is one of a person centered approach. This means that I take into account your unique perspective of the world and work with you to create the best possible healing space for you personally.

I work with many clients from many different backgrounds and cultures. My priority and number one goal is to enhance their lives and over all psychological functioning and wellbeing. I am not here to fix you, as you are not broken. My main goal is to help every single client to actualize and become the best version of themselves. I approach each client as an individual, with respect, dignity, and sensitivity. I view myself as working alongside each client towards creating more fulfilling opportunities, while reducing long standing negative behaviors, feelings, and thought patterns.
