New to Grow
Hi, I’m Jennifer, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist dedicated to creating a warm, grounding space where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and find clarity amid life’s challenges. I help adults work through anxiety, trauma, circular thinking, and overwhelming life transitions using an integrative approach that blends solution-focused strategies with somatic and mindfulness practices. My style is gentle but practical — we’ll focus on what’s working, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build sustainable steps toward balance and self-trust. Therapy with me is a collaborative process centered around your goals, your pace, and your growth.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we’ll explore what led you to therapy, what you’ve been feeling, and what changes you’d like to see. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to understand your goals and how I can best support you. By the end of the session, you’ll have a clear sense of direction and what working together will look like — a foundation for meaningful, steady progress.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I bring curiosity, calm, and a deep respect for each client’s unique experience. I’m skilled at noticing patterns, asking reflective questions, and helping clients translate insight into action. My integrative approach — combining somatic awareness, mindfulness, and solution-focused tools — supports both immediate relief and long-term change.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I’m best suited to support adults who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, overthinking, or unresolved trauma, as well as those navigating complicated family dynamics or major life transitions. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable, and caring individuals who appear “put together” on the outside but are carrying a heavy emotional load inside. Together, we’ll create a space for you to feel understood, grounded, and empowered to make lasting changes that bring more ease and balance into your life. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help clients shift from problem-saturated thinking toward hope, clarity, and possibility. Rather than dwelling on what isn’t working, we focus on small, realistic steps that create immediate improvements. My experience with SFBT allows me to guide clients toward their own strengths and resources so they feel empowered and capable of making lasting change.
Somatic
I use somatic therapy to help clients develop awareness of the mind–body connection and learn how physical sensations relate to emotional and psychological states. My experience includes guiding clients through grounding, breathwork, and strategies that reduce anxiety and promote safety. Somatic interventions are especially effective for clients with trauma histories, chronic stress, or difficulty calming their nervous system.
