I’m Jennifer, a licensed clinical social worker passionate about supporting teens and young adults through life’s challenges. I work collaboratively with clients to help them build self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and navigate transitions with confidence. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel empowered to overcome obstacles, strengthen relationships, and cultivate a greater sense of well-being.
In our first session, clients can expect a warm, welcoming environment where we’ll take time to get to know each other. I’ll listen closely to understand what brought them to therapy and what their goals are. Together, we’ll discuss any concerns and begin to outline a plan to address their needs. The session will also include reviewing any necessary paperwork and discussing how therapy will work, ensuring that they feel comfortable and informed moving forward.
My greatest strengths as a provider are my ability to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and valued. I bring a collaborative approach, working alongside clients to identify their strengths and challenges. Additionally, my focus on empathy, understanding, and offering practical tools helps clients feel empowered to navigate life's difficulties with confidence and resilience.
I am best positioned to serve teens and young adults who are navigating life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, work-related stress, life transitions, and parenting struggles. These clients may be seeking support to manage overwhelming emotions, build coping skills, and create lasting positive changes in their lives. Through a collaborative, compassionate approach, I help them feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater confidence and resilience.
Together, we’ll use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to build healthier thought patterns, boost confidence, and navigate life’s challenges with greater ease. Through strategies like cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and mindfulness, you'll develop practical tools to manage stress, improve emotional balance, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Person-Centered Therapy provides a safe, supportive space where your voice is heard and valued. With empathy and authenticity, we’ll build a strong therapeutic relationship that fosters self-discovery and growth. This collaborative process helps strengthen self-acceptance, increase clarity, and build confidence to navigate life’s challenges with greater ease.
Psychoeducation empowers clients with a deeper understanding of how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. By learning practical strategies and gaining insight into their experiences, clients build confidence in managing stress, navigating life transitions, and fostering resilience. Knowledge is a powerful tool for lasting growth and well-being.
