While serving individuals, couples and groups ( women) I integrate Imago Therapy and complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to whom I am working with.
Are you looking to work through challenges in your relationship? Would you like to enhance your relationship, prepare for marriage or prevent divorce? The cycle in marriage and relationships can cause us to lose hope and believe that being truly happy and fulfilled may not exist. This is not true. I am here to journey with you and your spouse/fiancé to understand where you are in the relationship cycle and what could potentially be preventing you from experiencing joy, peace, connection and unconditional love.

Life is a marathon and I believe that it is all about endurance. Sometimes we have to get a little help along the way whether it be a change of shoes, re-uptake of protein or a water break. There is this idea that we are weak when we seek others to help us out, but I also know that in life we cannot always persevere without a helping hand. I look forward to being an option of that new running shoe or Gatorade as we stride through the finish line together.

We all face challenges in life that can become overwhelming. Maybe you want to learn how to better manage those stresses. You want to feel empowered and purposeful, instead of feeling like your problems are the one in charge. Or perhaps you are seeking services for your child, who could use a safe space for extra support. In my practice I collaborate with adults, teens, and kids on reaching goals for greater wellness. Together we can address concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression, life transitions, perfectionism & self-criticism, grief, or career & school issues.

Hi, I’m Jenn. It’s exciting that you’ve come this far and found my profile. Let me share a bit about myself so you can decide if we’d be a good fit. Before becoming a therapist, I worked extensively in case management, which gave me a strong foundation in resourcefulness and understanding the unique challenges people face. I’ve worked with individuals in recovery from substance use, survivors of trauma, and those managing chronic illnesses. I’m passionate about guiding others through the healing process with a grounded, realistic approach. I strive to see each person as a whole, valuing who they are beyond specific labels.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
