I couldn't have asked for a better counselor. Jenny helped me break down my issues so that I could deal with them pragmatically and I now have the tools to solve problems on my own. She was genuinely interested in improving my wellbeing. Thank you.

Ready to find a happier you? I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over 7 years experience working with individuals, groups, couples and families. I have worked with clients dealing with addiction, impulse control disorders, anxiety, depression, parenting problems, abuse, trauma, domestic violence and life adjustment issues.
I earned an MA in Mental Health Counseling and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida (#MH10829). I have worked in a variety of counseling settings, including: residential and outpatient addiction treatment facilities, mental health agencies and school settings. My treatment approach is eclectic- employing techniques from various theories including Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused and Choice Theory. My counseling style is compassionate, interactive and professional. As a helping professional, I emphasize mental wellness versus mental illness and believe that there are many roads to wellness. I will tailor your treatment to your specific goals and needs.
You deserve to be the happiest and healthiest you, you can be. It takes courage to take the first steps toward change and I would be honored to help you on that journey.

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.
