About My Clients

I currently work with adults, first responders, law enforcement, and with those suffering from chronic pain, addiction, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, bipolar, grief, mental and emotional disturbances, suicidality, gender identity issues, change of life transitions, relationship problems, work burnout, codependency, intra and interpersonal issues, trauma, anger, and overall every day stresses! Providers in my office are allies of Racial-Justiced and LGBTQIA+.

My Background and Approach

I believe that building a rapport is the most important aspect of the therapeutic connection between therapist and patient. I will meet you where you are at! If you are unsure of therapy, we will explore it together and I will assist you on your therapeutic journey! I use a humanistic and cognitive-behavioral model that puts the patient first and includes CBT, ACT, IPT, relapse prevention, and motivational interviewing. I am here to help you cope with whatever you are experiencing no matter how big or small! As a psychologist, my passion lies in helping individuals navigate life's challenges and facilitating their journey towards growth and healing. I believe in the power of therapy to foster self-awareness, resilience, and meaningful change. It is an honor to walk alongside my patients as they explore their emotions, thoughts, and experiences in a safe and supportive environment.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Providers at Dr. Jen Therapy are fully committed to providing services that affirm the dignity, worth, and value of all individuals. We are dedicated to promoting an environment of respect and appreciation for the race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex, national origin, age, ancestry, physical/mental ability, sexual orientation, marital status, parental status, gender identity, gender expression, and socioeconomic status of all persons. We believe in creating an atmosphere of openness, trust, respect, and safety where diverse attitudes, beliefs, values, and behaviors can be explored and discussed. Mental health concerns are often affected by social forces in the environment related to power and privilege such as racism, sexism, classism, homophobia, heterosexism, and other forms of marginalization and oppression. We fully embrace providing high quality, diverse, and multi-culturally sensitive services that affirm the dignity, worth and value of all individuals.
