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.

Carl Jung once said, "One day You will grow up and the world will ask you who You are. If You don't know who you are, the world will quickly tell You." I believe the active choices we make, play a crucial role in shaping our sense of personal satisfaction, emotional confidence, and overall well-being. Changing the story, you tell about yourself, can have a profound impact on how difficult or easy the next few years of your life will be. Will Your story be one of courage, conviction and personal empowerment, or a repetitive tale of powerlessness? Will it be a story of accountability and healing, or shame? You are the only with the power to decide you matter. Empower Your voice. Redesign and refine...Choose freedom.
