Jennifer Dahl
Hello. I am a licensed mental health professional and a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. I am also a health coach, so looking at the whole body is extremely important to treatment. I have been working with people who have chronic medical or mental health conditions to become more functional and successful in their lives. In my spare time, I foster kittens.
First session
The first session is to get to know you and find out what you would like from therapy. Gathering a history and building rapport are very important.
Strengths
I am a very active clinician, and I do not sit and say nothing. We will have a dialogue to work on your treatment. With 30 years of experience, I can bring a lot of skills to the table. Being a health coach gives me a different perspective, as looking at the whole body is extremely important. I look forward to working with you.
Ideal clients
People who are struggling with health conditions (including perimenopause to post menopause) along with anxiety issues and/or depression. People who want to be more functional and successful in life by utilizing skills through DBT, CBT, and mind-body skills. Working with other professionals, such as medical professionals, increases the likelihood of decreasing symptoms for you. The collaboration is especially important in the treatment of mental health conditions.
Treatment methods
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
These skills are very important to learn as they are life skills.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Learning what type of thinking is leading to unhealthy negative emotions and the changes that can be made is extremely beneficial to being more functional
Trauma-Informed Care
Knowing about trauma is the most important skill for a therapist. Utilizing a mind-body approach along with other skills can be beneficial in decreasing the effects of trauma on people.
Eclectic
Knowing about health, nutrition, and stages of life is important to helping individuals as physical health is as important as mental health. Being a health coach has been extremely helpful.
