I believe Irvin Yalom said it best when he said we need to form a unique therapy for every person. We are all unique, our relationships and experiences are unique, and in therapy we need to find your own path forward in life. We can find that as a conversation between two experts, you being the expert in your own life, and me being an expert in this field. Together, we can work to help you find what you are looking for in therapy. Whether it is a skill and action motivated plan, or a space to emotionally process things regularly, or anything in between.

Hello, My name is Jennifer Bardon, a LCSW certified professional in the state of Michigan. Social work and behavioral therapy are my passions because helping others is truly what motivates and rewards me the most. Since receiving a BSW (Bachelors, Social Work) and MSW (Masters, Social Work) from Wayne State University, Detroit, nearly six years ago, I have been developing and practicing methods to better understand the human condition and how to modify it to help others through personal conflicts and struggles from insecurities, anxiety, depression, self esteem and so much more. Incorporating mindfulness techniques to assist clients with centering themselves, and focusing on the present, as well as challenging negative thoughts, is one of my many strengths. I have experience with working with children, teens and adults with developmental disabilities. As a clinician that practices Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) certified professional, you can be confident I have the skill-set necessary to work with a diverse array of clients. My focus is "You" the individual, and I encourage all my clients to help assist in utilizing and engaging in the recommended treatments thus giving them needed satisfaction in their own successes. Note: Evenings and weekends are open for clients who have a busy work week or find those times most convenient. I do offer some flexibility if appointments are requested outside of my usual available times.

I'm a licensed MSW (master social worker) in the Grand Rapids, Michigan. area I use solution focused counseling to help you figure out what positive changes you'd like to make and what small changes you can start with. I enjoy working with a wide variety of people and concerns. Solution Focused Therapy is a very practical and effective form of counseling. Most of the clients who gravitate towards my services want to take action and start making changes right away. They don't want to just talk about their problems, they want to get ideas for specific things to do and move on with their lives. They don't want to be in counseling for years and want a counselor who appreciates that too.

I always strive to ensure that each session leaves my clients feeling as though they have gained new insights or experienced positive changes. My mission is to make a meaningful impact during every session. Throughout our time together, I aim for you to feel genuinely understood and heard. We will collaborate to find solutions, explore various options, and gain fresh perspectives on your challenges. Clients often come to me when they feel stuck, and by the end of each session, I hope you will feel hopeful and see new possibilities for healing.

My goal is to provide a confidential environment where clients can process current life circumstances, explore new coping skills and meet their goals.

I am a licensed clinical therapist and Reiki Master Teacher in Michigan with 27 years of professional work experience. I use a unique holistic/spiritual approach, incorporating the mind, body, and soul as they all go hand in hand. Since I was a freshman in high school, I knew that I wanted to be a therapist and help people. I never questioned it and pursued this. After about 21 years, I really started to have an interest in holistic methods, spirituality, and exploring different healing modalities. I had some physical issues due to a bad car accident I was in when I was younger, combined with the stress I was experiencing. This really motivated me to learn alternative healing methods. I also discovered that I am an Empath. So I pursued learning more about this and myself by really expanding on my spiritual journey, and wanted to share my knowledge with others.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or disconnected—from themselves, their work, or their relationships.

Together, we’ll make sense of your experience, work through what’s holding you back, and help you move toward a life that feels more meaningful, grounded, and fully yours.

"Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." - Viktor E. Frankl What a journey life can be, it is an honor to be considered to guide you along the way. I am a Clinically Licensed Social Worker in the state of Michigan. For the past 10 years, I have been working with children, adolescents, young adults and teenagers to address some of the following: anxiety, avoidance, depression, developing coping skills, sleep hygiene and providing interventions for ADHD.

I believe in therapy as someone who has done my own clinical work since I was in my mid-twenties. I grew up in NJ and moved to Michigan to attend college and have been here since that time. I spent the first part of my career working in the foster care system with children and adolescents which I really enjoyed. That gave me a great foundation for working with the adult issues of attachment, child developmental stages that were not accomplished and struggles with current relationships. I do a lot of work with people who were raised by narcissistic parents, people who are dealing with cancer diagnosis and those with chronic or life threatening illnesses. I work with people who are addressing childhood trauma, sexual abuse or emotional abuse. I have worked with adoptees who are seeking understanding of themselves and their past. I do a lot of work with individuals transitioning from a divorce situation and all the adjustments that this involves especially in coparenting situations. I find people and their life experiences fascinating and always worth unpacking and investigating to gain a better understanding of the self as a whole being; there is always something new to learn.

I became a therapist because I struggled with my own anxiety as a teenager and I wanted to understand what was happening and learn to use this experience to help others. I know how difficult life can feel to face the world with an anxious brain. My aim is to make you feel comfortable and bring a sense of humor to our sessions. I believe that we all have the ability to get better even when we feel like we are stuck.
