Everyone is an individual. Nobody is exactly like anyone else. By working together in a supportive, honest and respectful way, I will assist you in becoming more like the person you really are. You might know how you want to be and have trouble being that person or you might be unsure or confused. Hopelessness and fears get in the way of life satisfaction. My expertise is helping you to remove the barriers that prevent you from living a more complete and satisfying life.

We are collectively facing such challenging times, so why go it alone? Whether it is you or your child in need of support, I'd like to be there for you. I specialize in working with adolescents to young adults, ages ranging from about fifteen to about twenty five - but am of course open to working with those outside of this age range. I currently have the most availability earlier in the day, and aim to accommodate college-age individuals with this time. Emerging adulthood is full of ups and downs - I'm here so that you do not have to walk that road alone.

Hello. By way of introduction, I have been a social worker for 27 years with a practice devoted to grief and loss. I have helped many people heal from the anguish of their losses. I can offer you my professional experience, and, of equal importance, kindness, empathy, understanding and the ability to listen deeply.

It is important that I make a positive imprint on your life and leave you with the feelings of comfort and safety confiding in me. I will provide a safe and open environment so you can explore your feelings and experiences without judgment. Every individual has their own past and present experiences that shape what our lives are today. Not one single individual’s experiences are ever the same as another. Those experiences should not have a hold over you or your life, and together we will find ways to help make it easier one day at a time.

I am an empathetic, perceptive therapist that is dedicated to my clients. Through the use of Cognitive Behavioral, Strength-Based and Person-Centered therapies, I start where the client is to assist them in developing their goals. I am socially conscious of individuals' differences and work hard to make my clients feel at ease and devoid of personal viewpoints.

I've been a social worker for over 30 years with experience working in schools, crisis centers, public and private agencies, and in private practice for over 12 years. I have worked with people aged 6 to 86, currently working primarily with adults. It takes a lot of courage to start therapy...to take the risks associated with truly looking at, learning about, and choosing accountability to address the parts of our lives that trouble us or the people we care about. If you are reading this, it's time to take a risk. You are worth it.

My name is Jenna and I work with adults and teenagers to help them grow in whatever direction they feel is most genuine for them. Whether in work, school, relationships, or our own personal worlds, we often fall into patterns of being that serve a purpose, but may not feel fulfilling. We might cast aside our true feelings, values, and identities to protect ourselves from pain or judgment, which can cause us to lose sight of our authentic selves. I am passionate about providing an environment of warmth, empathy, and exploration to help my clients better understand and honor their true selves.
