Sexual Abuse Therapists in Fargo, ND

I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma or verbal, emotional, physical or sexual abuse in their families or close relationships. Particularly when abuse happens earlier in life or over a long period, those suffering may develop various symptoms including depression, anxiety, low self esteem, self harm, substance use, and anger issues. I view symptoms as ways of coping that have helped you survive so far. We collaborate in therapy to help you find new ways to relate to yourself and others, and create a more meaningful and satisfying life, however that might look for you.

Hello, I am excited to work with you and walk on your journey towards positive mental health. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Dakota and Licensed Independent Social Worker in Minnesota.

Congratulations on taking that first step towards recovery! Whether it is depression, anxiety, addiction or any number of the countless things that keep us from living the life we want, searching for someone to help partner with you on that journey towards healing and wholeness is an important first step. At Benson Psychological Services we work with a full range of mental health and addiction concerns to include depression, anxiety, ADHD, disruptive behaviors, relationship issues, parenting issues, sexual concerns, DUI, substance abuse, self-esteem, chronic pain, sexual addiction, grief and loss, and much more

My goal is to create a supportive environment where my clients can explore their emotional needs and overcome barriers that limit their full potential. I offer counseling sessions during daytime and evening hours for individuals and couples for topics of concern including Depression, Dual Diagnosis, Codependency, Anxiety/Stress, Communication issues, Trust issues, Loneliness, Emotional intimacy, Trauma/PTSD, Traumatic Brain Injury and Self-esteem issues. I would like the opportunity to help you heal any experiences that impact your life and to join you on your journey to becoming a better you.

Life's journey can often throw us curve balls. Everyone is worthy of love and belonging, however sometimes it is hard to be able to put yourself first and nurture your emotional needs. With the correct level of support, I firmly believe that anyone can achieve better emotional stability, find moments of joy, and learn to live in the present. No one is able to "fix" another's mental health concerns, yet through support, encouragement, education, empathy, and understanding, you can have the knowledge and tools to reach your own personal goals. I have worked in the mental field for 10 years.

Jen strives to ensure each client feels safe and supported throughout the treatment process and feels that a collaborative working relationship is the cornerstone to personal growth. She works with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

Do you or your child have a memory or experience that still impacts you? Have you or your child ever felt alone in your situation or like most people don't understand? Are you or your child struggling with negative thoughts about yourself, other people, or the world in general? Does learning ways to manage you or your child's life stressors seem overwhelming and you don't know where to start? Whether you are wanting to address issues with the past, present, or future, I will meet you where you are.

My life-long passion is to help children, adolescents, and families heal. I work with children with a range of presenting concerns including attachment, behavior, mood and anxiety. I provide evidence-based treatments within a caring, trusting therapeutic relationship. I enjoy working with children that are considered "complex" including those who have had early developmental trauma and those who have behavioral difficulties that cause significant challenges. Helping parents to become more attuned and connected allows for healing across generations.

Every person brings a different story into therapy and my goal as a counselor is to create a safe space for you to explore and understand your story. I believe that a safe and collaborative relationship makes space for true healing and relationship building will always be the first priority in your work with me. You can expect that I will respect your own personal journey and that your personal goals will be heard and worked towards. If seeking services for your child, please know that I will work alongside you to address concerns in a way that is respectful of all involved.

Accepting New Clients. Understanding ourselves requires courage. Each of us have shame, pain, and broken relationships. At times it can feel overwhelming to face these places in our lives alone. Counseling offers a safe, confidential, and relational space for you to come and understand what has/is happening in your life. My hope is that you may understand yourself better and come to trust yourself. As you care for yourself, you will find that forging safer, healthier, and more satisfying relationships with others is possible. I am a trained relational psychotherapist; I work with adolescents and adults in the Fargo/Moorhead area.

Congratulations on taking the first step. I offer individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, equine therapy, alternative healing techniques and coaching to help you break through barriers and create lasting change in your life. Trauma and loss happen in our lives, but these events shouldn't define us or the amazing talents we have to share with this world.

I believe in empowering individuals to become the best version of themselves. It is often difficult to move past issues, traumatic events, or insecurities but researching therapists is the first step, so congratulations on beginning the journey!

An ideal client for me is anyone that wants to engage in therapy and better themselves, situation and their life. I love the variety of clients I see and am ready to meet them where they are at. Whether its a life transition, daily life stressors, relationship challenges or something more long term, I am here to help. I enjoy seeing teenagers and adults.
