Hello, my name is Jennifer and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I received my master's degree from the University of Southern California and have been practicing for over 10 years. I help women who are experiencing emotional challenges, life transitions, health issues, and so on, to be able to feel unstuck in their lives and begin to move forward.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing and review your goals, if you know them. This will help me create a you-centered plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with individuals from all backgrounds for the past 10 years. I feel I have developed the ability to empathically walk through the therapeautic journey with my clients and bear witness to their emotional and behavioral changes.
I enjoy working with women in all stages of life: college, career, motherhood, partnerships, retirement, etc. My clients want to change and aren't always sure how. Let's explore the how together.
CBT allows individuals to understand the relationship between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors. This approach may assist with helping to answer the why questions.
Somatic Experiencing therapy assists individuals who experience their emotions in their body. This therapy allows you to connect your thoughts to your body and identify your feelings more clearly. Sometimes we are able to process our thoughts best through finding safety in the body.
DBT is a therapy that helps provide individuals with practical steps to assist with their intense emotions, challenging situations and relationships.
