Feelings of hopelessness, shame, and grief can keep us feeling stuck. Depression and anxiety can be overwhelming, making it difficult to move forward and live our lives to the fullest. If you're here, it's because you're seeking change, and by taking this first step of seeking help, you're already on the pathway to healing - you're already doing the hard work! I want to acknowledge that seeking help takes courage, and I'm here to face the hard things with you and help you work through any wounds you may have experienced.

Juggling multiple responsibilities has finally taken its toll on you. You’ve been anxious that you can’t get everything done, causing distress and, in some cases, panic attacks. You’re not just grappling with anxiety either, but the weight of past losses has also caused depression. All of these factors seem to have poisoned every aspect of your life. Your relationships are strained, work has gone downhill, and your overall well-being has declined. You realize that you haven’t been able to manage these emotions effectively and feel burdened to figure out how to overcome them on your own.

Feeling spread thin? Are your boundaries not set and respected? Intrusive, overwhelming thoughts won’t leave you alone? Stuck in a mental space vacuum where it’s hard to get yourself grounded and in control? Insecure in the way you present yourself in certain spaces? Find yourself reacting and regretting rather than mindfully responding? My curiosity drives my sessions to hear and understand your unique story in which you are the narrator, main character, and expert. I work with various clients, including children, teens, college students, those in midst of transitions, adults, and immigrants. Sessions in Korean are also available!

I believe that everyone needs an objective resource in their life. Someone who can take a look at their current life circumstances, or even childhood experiences in order to determine what trajectory they are on. Therapy is a collaborative effort and the therapist and client tackle the difficult situations that the client has faced, and together form a new path. There is no hierarchy in therapy, I prefer to be called Jennifer rather than Dr. or Ms. Guinta. We are all on an even playing field. I am just here to show you alternate perspectives regarding your problem. I am reality based, I do not just "yes you", I challenge you.

Therapy is, above all, a partnership. As your therapist, I create a space where you are heard, validated, and accepted as you are. Many of us have very few places in our lives where we can be our most authentic selves. It is through this level of trust and respect that true transformation and healing can occur. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and empowering. I will help you to see all your inherent strengths that depression, anxiety, or life stressors may be clouding your vision of. Through our therapeutic connection and evidence-based strategies, we can clear the lens and allow you to envision the path forward.
