I enjoy working with people to help them build a strong sense of self, encourage their confidence in relationships, and help foster a sense of calm and security in their everyday life. I enjoy helping parents navigate the many challenges that come our way. I believe people seek therapy for many reasons: adjustment to a new city or life situation, feeling overwhelmed or stuck, or problems with relationships. Counseling is a process that most of us could benefit from time to time at different stages in life, as it brings an outsider's perspective to events, we are faced with in day-to-day life in a nonjudgmental way.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, Virginia, and Florida. I became interested in becoming a Social Worker while complete my Associate's Degree in Hospitality. I was a volunteer at a local homeless organization in North Carolina and I was in charge of managing the operations of the kitchen. I later assisted with a mentor program and did not feel I was capable. That led me to reseach other programs. I discovered all the possibilities of becoming a Social Worker which led me to becoming a therapist. I have a wide range of experience working with small children with developmental delays, with adolescents and families in their homes, in psychiatric units with children and adults, prions, and with the VA Medical Center.

My extensive experience in working with children and families of diverse ethnic backgrounds and disabilities means that I'm fully equipped to guide, support and assist you in building the life you clearly deserve. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and a masters in social work from Florida International University. I am also a licensed clinical social worker in Florida and Virginia.

In addition, I aim to help create life balance and help you understand how to prioritize YOU and highlighting all aspects of your authentic self. My goal is to help individuals overcome stress and life challenges. Together we will explore solutions and easier ways of managing stress that may be contributed by past negative events linked to current negative thoughts and emotions. If you feel as though you are stuck and not evolving due to increased stress, frustration, anger, fear, sadness, disgust, rage, or annoyance, for example, you may be holding on to certain negative emotions that are hindering you from evolving, healing, and growing. My purpose is to support you where you are at and help you remove energy blocks and negative thoughts to promote the healing process. My approach involves Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) exposure therapy to thoughts, feelings, and emotions by using positive affirmations and tapping interventions. Whatever stage in life you are in right now, you can expect me to walk with you through these challenges by inspiring and motivating you every step of the way. You can expect to improve your quality of life, find your purpose, and learn more about yourself by changing your story or narrative in order to fulfill your dreams of success.

Hola, I am Jennifer P. Ortega and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. What does that mean? A Clinical Social Worker looks at all parts of you. We call it the BIO-Psycho-Social-Spiritual-Environment aspects of your life. This holistic perspective allows me to better identify what might be impacting you and how to support you effectively. With over a decade of experience, I have learned that building a strong rapport with my clients is key to fostering positive change. I understand that finding the right therapist can be a challenging and important decision, as it is a relationship that you want to get right from the start. In our sessions, I will encourage you to step outside of your comfort zone, as this fosters growth, self-awareness, and meaningful processing. Though the journey may be challenging, you are worth it. I look forward to meeting you. Hi, Yo soy Jennifer P. Ortega, y soy una trabajadora social licencianda en psicoterapia. Que significa eso? Una trabajadora social se enfoca en las partes biológicas, sociales, spiritual, y ambiente. Esto le ayuda a la terapista entender áreas en la vida de el cliente. Tengo 10 años en esta práctica. Y lo que yo e aprendido es que la relación entere el cliente y la terapista es el gran motivador para cambio. Yo se que la búsqueda en de un terapista es difícil. Es unas de esas relaciones que quieres que trabaje la primera vez. Pero lo que te puedo decir es que si, te voy a empujar para que salgas de tu área de costumbre. Esto apoya crecimiento, sabiduría en uno mismo como al mismo tiempo ayuda a procesar. Que a uno lo empuje afuera de la costumbre es difícil, pero tus vales! Estoy esperanzada en conocerte.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Virginia rather than a city like Richmond?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Virginia from Norfolk to Roanoke! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Virginia.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
