Being compassionate with our self is important when we undertake personal change. Our internal critic and negative thoughts can leave us feeling defeated. When we're disconnected from our authentic self or from others, we suffer. Disconnection can result from many circumstances, for example living by other's expectations at the expense of pursuing our own goals. Or, the busy pace of life can leave people feeling disconnected and alienated. When we re-connect with our self and other people, we're more able to manage life's stressors using healthy means and live a more peaceful and contented life.

Stress/anxiety, depression, self esteem, relationship issues, and generally feeling lost are all common issues amongst the generations today. Living and operating within this country can be challenging, leaving you without certainty or the support to ensure all of your basic needs. It is no secret that the lockdowns took a toll on us all but help is available. We all need a place to vent/process our difficult thoughts/feelings, learn coping skills, manage anger, and improve our communication skills.

Do you have an inner critic that impacts how you think and feel? Does your mind get overwhelmed with negative thoughts about yourself or your body? Do you long to build a stronger relationship with yourself? Self-criticism, spiraling thoughts, and negative self-talk can be exhausting and harmful to self-esteem and well-being. The way we treat ourselves and our bodies becomes tied to our identities, it shapes how we view the world and is eventually embedded in the values we hold and assign to ourselves.

Everyone is at their own change-readiness level and I will support you where you are at.

An ideal client would be someone who is empathetic toward others and compassionate toward themselves and is open, coachable, and capable of accepting feedback. The process of therapy takes time and energy so having someone start the process of therapy with an open mind and a willingness to put in the work to see the process through is also helpful. Jennifer also offers clinical supervision to pre-licensed therapists (ASW, AMFT, APCC). In addition to therapy and supervision, she provides consulting to therapists seeking to start or grow their private practice. She's also passionate in counseling other mental health providers.
