Jennifer Van Berkum
As the wife of a physician and someone who has worked closely with RNs, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals, I understand firsthand how emotional exhaustion and constant pressure can take a toll. I’m especially passionate about helping healthcare providers heal from compassion fatigue.
As the wife of a physician and someone who has worked closely with RNs, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals, I understand firsthand how emotional exhaustion and constant pressure can take a toll.
I am a laid-back therapist, so it’s not unusual for me to wear jeans or sandals at the office. I have lived experience with mental health personally.
First session
In our first session, I want to learn more about you and the characters that play a role in your story. This information will be used to collaborate on treatment goals.
Strengths
I integrate evidence-based approaches, including CBT, trauma-informed care, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). I also hold a Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) credential.
Ideal clients
I work with healthcare professionals navigating workplace burnout and chronic stress using a casual and direct approach. My work focuses on helping clients understand the root causes of burnout, rebuild motivation, and develop tools to manage stress without compromising performance or well-being. I take great pride and honor in being a part of my client's journey. I am passionate about helping healthcare professionals heal from compassion fatigue.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
The therapeutic approaches I use are tailored to my client's specific needs. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice as it offers tools and has shown to be effective for folks looking to explore specific coping skills.
