Having extensive experience & training in trauma recovery counseling, I work with adult survivors of childhood interpersonal trauma and survivors of psychological abuse.
I value the role faith & spirituality plays in self-evaluation, change, growth, healing, relationships & success. I practice from a family systems perspective, helping people discover hindrances holding them back from living a life they love. Counseling is a powerful support resource, especially when wresting with the challenges & the unexpected that life has a way of throwing at you from past to present. I hope you'll consider letting me support you in healing, designing & creating a life you can love living. Ask me about incorporating yoga & art into counseling. Additionally, I offer an empowering Women's Sexuality service.

with my clients, I have witnessed the impressive power of the mind to heal itself from trauma, grief, phobias, anxiety, unwanted habits/behaviors, low self-esteem/self-doubt, and more.
With over 13 years’ experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I enjoy having the opportunity to help people make significant changes in their lives. Something unique about my practice is that I offer traditional counseling as well as a short-term therapy option called Accelerated Resolution Therapy (A.R.T.), which targets specific problems in just 1 to 5 sessions. A.R.T. is a powerful research-backed therapy that has garnered numerous testimonials from satisfied clients. A.R.T. uses eye movements similar to EMDR, but is more directive, guiding clients through each step. As a result, A.R.T. achieves results in fewer sessions.

Have you recently experienced a type of loss: death, reproductive trauma, relationship loss, spiritual trauma, chronic illness, family member with a substance use disorder, or any life change ? Do you feel overwhelmed, anxious, confused, angry, isolated, like no one understands? If so, I would love to help you navigate and normalize these feelings.
Welcome! I'm Jennifer Caballero, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in grief and loss. We are all impacted by grief during our lifetime and yet grief is something that we rarely talk about as a society. Grief is a normal response to any loss. It has no timeline, easy fix, or specific set of instructions for healing. I believe grief is not pathological, or a problem that needs to be "fixed" or "gotten over." Grief is a journey that is unique to everyone. My approach is to help you identify how grief shows up and impacts your life while providing coping skills that allow you to incorporate grief into your ongoing story.

When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
