More about Jennifer

  • 3 years' experience

  • LCSW

Life is always throwing us unexpected twists and turns! I can help you navigate through those, so you can keep moving forward, in spite of those challenges. Dealing with self doubt and fears holding you back from your full potential and happiness? I can help you with that too. No need trying to live up to some definition of 'perfect', or what everyone else thinks you should be! I've got 20 years experience helping people sort through feelings of "not being good enough", anxiety, depression and substance use issues, as well as challenging old negative beliefs about self that can create unhealthy patterns in relationships with others and self. I use a very empathic, strengths based and client centered approach, and strongly believe in the mind-body connection. Let's get working on you and your future, so you can be the best version of you! I look forward to the journey of collaboratively working on your vision of the future for yourself!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
