Welcome! My name is Jennifer and I am a licensed professional counselor and certified rehabilitation counselor.
Eight years in the mental health field has exposed me to many wonderful people in a variety of settings. My professional experience began in residential group homes and then out-patient care. I have most experience working with people who have anxiety, depression, complex trauma, schizophrenia, and intellectual disabilities. For the past nine years, I have volunteered as a mentor for people who are incarcerated through a national Bible study outreach program.
Perhaps the most important lesson I have learned is that, each person already possesses gifts and talents to overcome even the bleakest circumstance. My passion is to help you uncover the emotional gifts that may have been buried under the corrosion of negativity. This lesson drives me to learn more about each person I am fortunate to meet. I strive to always provide a supportive environment as we work together. At times, I will ask difficult questions that are designed to spur your growth and development to the next level.
I provide worksheets and information sheets throughout out our time together to help you learn more about anxiety, depression, and emotional well-being. These also help you discover more about yourself. They are part of our therapeutic work together, take a relatively short amount of time to answer, provide meaningful information, and are at no extra cost to you. I do expect the worksheets to be completed.
This world is rapidly changing, and this can become overwhelming for many. I believe in planning for tomorrow but celebrating victories and examining defeats on a day by day basis. We can work through emotions, concerns, and often discover root causes to break the power they hold over you.
I know there is a great need for LGBTQ counselors. However, I do not have training in LGBTQ issues and can't provide treatment as it is outside my scope of practice.
My role as therapist, is to guide and walk with you along your pathway. Using your values and your priorities as the road map to YOUR success. My primary approach is a client-centered approach with motivational interviewing, CBT and/or EMDR incorporated. I always tailor the treatment to your needs. These are your sessions; I will use my training and experience to help guide you along your journey. Each discussion will promote development of the terrific qualities you already possess in order to help you flourish! Any time you have questions in general or the about the process, please let me know.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Jennifer is very helpful and always willing to listen to me. As well as find ways to help
Jennifer is a great counselor. Very caring and professional. Like her optimistic attitude and big heart.
Jennifer has been amazing and so helpful. I sought therapy to help with my anxiety and we’re finding other things to work through. I’m more confident.
Jennifer has eased me into feeling myself again! It’s a new journey for me and I feel very safe when speaking with Jennifer. She really listens and is very easy to talk too!
Jennifer is a fantastic therapist/counsellor & a wonderful support. In the 30 minute sessions, I feel like we cover so much & I always feel the call feeling a weight is off my shoulders. She’s able to listen to jumble out everything I’m feeling at a million miles a minute, contextualise it, validate how I’m feeling & still give me clear cut advice on how to take things forward. I love the fact that we set clear goals & use worksheets/exercises because it keeps me engaged. I appreciate that I can journal & share my entries directly with Jennifer without ever fearing that she’ll judge me. I find myself thinking “what would Jennifer say to you” when I’m struggling with my anxiety. Really glad to be working with her!
Jennifer has been a kind and listening ear. She provides applicable strategies that work for any living situation to cope with stress and anxiety!
Fantastic. So far the best therapist I have had. Understands my concerns, sets goals, gives good tasks without them being too challenging. Overall very positive experience.
She is an amazing therapist, her smile can give you immense hope!
Jennifer has already given me actionable information on how to improve my emotional maturity in the short time I’ve known her.
I have had one session with Jennifer. She was helpful but I think we’ve got some way to go to help me with my lack of motivation and thinking dark thought of my life and me within it.
I have tried other therapy means for years. Since I have been matched with Jennifer, I have made more progress in a few weeks than months with other services.
Jennifer is authentic, transparent, and easily listens to how you feel and what your needs are. She has never given me the impression of being judgmental or holding me to a standard that is not one that I strive for in my life. She gives very positive learning strategies through discussion or texts in chat module to hone my skills to direct attention on how I respond to my world and life. She helps set goals directed by my own needs then encourages and helps me stay focused on them. I am a person with childhood trauma, as well as, in my adult life including loss of a child, sudden physical disability, unfaithful spouse, and loved one being incarcerated — all occurring with in a blink of an eye. If you have any or none of these, she is qualified to help!
I learned 1 or 2 things already. I will continue and see how this goes but so far I think id say I'm benefitting from the counseling.
I haven't been here too long, but so far she is really nice and informative. She tries to give me multiple strategies for coping with things and offers alternatives if something isn't working. She listens without judgement and she is very professional.
