Jenna Bourassa

Hi, I'm Jenna. If anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, or an adjustment disorder have been running the show, I want you to know therapy doesn't have to feel heavy to work. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut, and I believe healing grows out of real connection, curiosity, and openness, with room for therapy to feel collaborative, empowering, and even enjoyable along the way. My approach is warm, authentic, and nonjudgmental: together we'll build insight and leave every session with practical tools you can use in everyday life, whether you're an adolescent or an adult ready for a change.

In our work together, expect a collaborative, compassionate, strength-based approach. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, strengthbased approaches, and humanistic therapy, tailored to what you need and the strengths you already bring through the door.

Your first session is about safety and connection: we'll talk through what's bringing you in, I'll ask about your history and goals, and together we'll start building the collaborative relationship the rest of our work rests on. You'll leave with a clear sense of what's next and feeling heard, not rushed. From there, we move at your pace, building practical tools for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and the stress of day-to-day adjustment, so change feels steady rather than overwhelming.
