Hi there, I'm Jenni! Feeling stuck and frustrated? Struggling to deal with the loss of a loved one? Expecting an upcoming change? Not able to sleep or stay on top of things in your life? I am here to help! Therapy cannot be effective if we are not meeting your specific needs and goals. I want to meet you where you are and together identify a path forward. I like to understand you, your values, and your background while also giving you solution-focused interventions you can utilize to make changes. If talking it through without homework is the way you want to go, that is fine too! We are all capable of change and moving forward but sometimes it is the dialogues in our head, relationships, or other factors that are getting in our way. Therapy is a great place to work through those and be more connected with what you value in your life. Let's work together!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will start with introductions and get into what is bringing you to therapy, your history, and goals. I want you to be involved in your treatment plan and if we decide I am not a good fit, that is okay too.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My practice history of the past over 10 years is diverse and includes working with those with chronic and terminal illnesses, caregivers, military veterans and members, adults navigating life changes and stressors, and the LGBTQ+ community, and more. I have a diverse toolbox from short term and solution focused to support those who are looking for a few sessions to get some tips and acute support to tools for those looking for medium-longer term support.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
Anxiety, depression, grief/loss, chronic illness, stress, insomnia, relationship stressors, burnout, work-related stressors, communication issues, and navigating changes.
