*I am not currently accepting new clients* People are the experts on their own lives...My job is to focus on the client's perspective and life experiences so that I can help provide the best environment for change. I work from a strength-based, integrative approach to therapy to fit the needs of the individual, helping clients explore ways to make changes in their lives.

I am currently accepting new clients. From birth to death, life is a constant transition. I work with individuals (adolescents and adults), couples, and families, who are experiencing a wide range of symptoms including infidelity, breakdowns in communication, high functioning Autism, trauma, sexual abuse issues, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and grief. I have extensively researched issues and stressors that today's LGBTQ+ clients and families may be experiencing, and work with transgender clients to gain the appropriate gender affirming care.

As a licensed therapist for over twenty-five years, I specialize in working with the unique demands of administrators, faculty, and graduate students to reduce burnout and anxiety while creating sustainable work-life balance. Improve stress management and enhance productivity by learning tools to more effectively navigate the barriers of university and department politics, teaching vs. research, challenging students, service requirements, and publishing pressures. Additional specializations include anxiety, depression, reproduction and infertility, separation and divorce, parenting issues, medical advocacy, and narcissistic abuse.

We all need help at times. Asking for it is not always easy - it is a vulnerable, brave act that requires courage and self-knowledge. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life changes (such as immigration, parenthood, loss of a loved one), career or university challenges, suicidal ideation, engaging in addictive, self-harming behaviors or feeling overwhelmed, directionless and lonely, my aim is to help you pay attention to your inner world, and to walk alongside you with kindness and respect to encourage clarity and healing so that you can live the life you desire.

I especially enjoy working with young adults and older adults that are going through life changes.

When you have suffered trauma, you learn early on that you can not say "no". As a result, maybe you struggle with people pleasing, saying "yes" to whatever comes up to avoid conflict, and hopefully, demonstrate your value. Maybe you feel like you can't trust yourself, can't trust others, and are destined to live a life of powerlessness and shame. When was the last time you remember having good sleep? The last you felt good enough? Safe? Whole? Or maybe you are concerned about ailing relationships in your life; be they with family, friends, or your partner? Maybe you want to feel closer to others but don't know how? We can help.

Are you struggling in life or a relationship? Perhaps you and your partner just can't stop arguing, or your new child has caused you to feel as though you have lost control of your relationship. Has your marriage been forever redefined by an affair and you're wondering what this means? Are you experiencing anxiety about a decision, unable to move through a transition, and feeling undefined in a world full of definitions? You are not alone. I have committed my life to helping people like you. Let me help reduce conflict, increase communication, and rebuild trust and healing.

I have a passion to help you be who you were created to be! If suffering PTSD, anxiety, depression, or feel stuck, overwhelmed, alone, irritable, and tired. I am here to help. Some people have trouble sleeping, coping, abusing substances, & communicating with others. Past traumas and negative ways of coping have affected you mentally, physically, & spiritually also impacting the way you respond to others and your own negative self-talk. You may have tried to manage these issues on your own, with no lasting results, leaving you feeling tired, sad & defeated. I want to help you stop the painful cycle & gain tools to thrive!

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck? I understand how difficult it can be to navigate life's challenges. I am here to offer support and encouragement while we explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a safe and non-judgmental space. Let's work together to help you overcome any obstacles preventing you from living your best life. I work with evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs and we'll work together to create a plan that helps you achieve your goals. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, OCD, or trauma I'm here to validate your experience and offer guidance. Don't suffer in silence.

Wishing your relationship would improve? Feeling disconnected from your spouse/partner(s)? Does your relationship feel unsatisfying sexually or emotionally? Having frequent conflicts or fights? Do you wish your partner could meet your physical or emotional needs and desires? Want help overcoming jealousy, insecurity, or sexual shame/guilt? Struggling to overcome an affair? Looking for help with non-monogamy, kinks/fetishes, or LGBTQ+ issues? Navigating solutions to these issues can feel overwhelming and difficult. Rest assured that you can have a stronger, more connected, sexually fulfilling life and relationship with Sex Therapy.

Hi! I’m Jen and I’m not perfect. It took me a long time to be able to say and accept that statement. In fact, I embrace the things that are imperfect: I am a trauma survivor. I am neurodivergent. I have struggled with depression and anxiety. I have navigated all of these difficulties throughout my life and seek to help others navigate their issues as well. I am fully authentic with my clients and I hope my clients will be fully authentic with me.
