Hi, I'm Jenny. When you attend a session, I aim to provide a safe place where you can freely share. Over the past 15 years, I specialized in trauma-focused therapy, anxiety, couple-related issues, grief, ADHD, and more. When the pressures of life create distress or your loneliness overtakes you, it's important to find a safe and judgment-free space to put the pieces of your life together.

I can help you find your footing amid chaos and learn how to develop effective tools in a safe and non-judgmental space while keeping it real.

I completed my master's in counseling from Philadelphia University and earned my specialization in Trauma Focused (CBT) Therapy from Widener University. I can help you find your footing amid chaos and learn how to develop effective tools in a safe and non-judgmental space while keeping it real. Feel free to schedule a free 15-minute consultation phone call to see if we are a good fit and then we can go from there.

First session

Your first session is a welcoming, collaborative space designed to help us begin building a strong therapeutic relationship. During this time, I will focus on getting to know you (your background, current concerns, strengths, and what brings you to therapy at this point in your life). We will move at a pace that feels comfortable for you, and you are always free to share as much or as little as you feel ready to. Together, we will begin identifying your goals and priorities, and I will work alongside you to develop an individualized treatment plan that reflects your needs, values, and vision for growth.

Strengths

If you seek culturally and racially sensitive mental health services from an experienced Black female therapist, you are in the right place. I specialize in working with all age groups. I've provided services for a wide range of concerns including trauma, relationship issues, grief & loss, career challenges, ADHD, OCD, domestic violence, & anxiety.

Jenny helps me to work through issues as we laugh, talk spirituality, and family dynamics. She empowers me. She challenges me and I'm thankful for each phase we've completed and will continue to work through together!
