I strive to create an environment where clients can show up as their authentic selves and work through the life circumstances that brought them to the counseling room. As a therapist, I believe that a trusting therapeutic relationship is the foundation for all change and growth. I aim to foster a space with open communication and a focus on collaboration to ensure that clients grow in the direction that they choose. I am dedicated to continuously learning and growing as a clinician, so I welcome feedback from clients with the goal of bolstering the client’s experience in therapy.
In session with me, you can expect for me to learn who you are and to collaboratively decide on therapy goals. We will choose interventions best tailored to your needs and preferences to initiate therapeutic change. Throughout our time together, we will work through challenging topics, discover your strengths and create action plans for utilizing them within your life, as well as take time to process heavy thoughts and emotions. I focus on restoring or strengthening a sense of control and choice into your life.

Hello! I’m Jenn.
As a therapist, I think of how amazing it is when my clients choose to work through their biggest worries and difficult moments. I realize how brave clients are to do so. I am human and I am passionate about having therapy be a safe space, where I can support your healing and your values. Your mental health does not define who you are. Instead, your vulnerability will help you develop your full potential.
A typical session with me will include:
Empathetic listening and a judgment-free zone.
Exploring your thoughts, feelings, relationships, and functioning.
Partnering with you to discuss techniques to help you work toward your goals. A plan of what you would like to work on in your therapy sessions.
Updates on how you have been in between sessions.
Celebrating your successes and discussions on your genuine happiness.
Seeking therapy is a big step, and the first step to healing.
I am honored to work with you and support you.
