More about Jennifer

  • 22 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As a therapist with 20 years experience I am versed in multiple modalities of working with people. I have dual licensure in the areas of mental health and substance use. I also have specialized training to work with gambling disorders. I believe in the medical model of disease and work with clients to reduce stigma attached to these diagnosis. Believing the the medical model is only part of my practice though. Healing is holistic and there are many parts to getting well. I am a trained EMDR therapist and enjoy using this modality. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, it is a different way of working with people than traditional talk therapy. I am trained in several different protocols for EMDR including trauma as well as addiction. I like people and I want to help end suffering in people's lives. It would be a honored to walk with you on this journey.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Jennifer is an excellent, understanding therapist. She talks to me about my online life, which includes many people I've met in computer games, and she works very hard on understanding the situation I'm in as I tell her about it. I spend a lot of time on my own, and she helps practice social skills, which I appreciate. Thumbs up for Jen!

Jennifer is my very first therapist ever and my experience has been so positive.

She is very knowledgeable in many areas. She pushes me to dive deep and always asks the right questions. Even if I come into a session with nothing in mind to talk about - we always end up having great conversations. She knows endless methods and strategies for working through problems, issues, trauma, etc. She has already helped me tremendously. To top it all off, she is very easy to talk to and open up to as well. Jennifer is the best!
