Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Jen, and I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a mental health therapist with experience in the field since 2018. I’m passionate about helping people better understand themselves and grow into the lives they want to lead.

My training includes crisis intervention, trauma-informed care, DBT, Functional Family Therapy, and Gottman Couples Therapy.

I work with clients navigating a range of challenges, including relationship issues, anxiety, ADHD, and identity exploration related to gender and sexuality. As a queer therapist, I care deeply about supporting the LGBTQIA+ community—especially in these troubling times.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic style blends compassionate exploration of clients' thoughts, feelings, and past experiences with practical tools they can take with them beyond sessions.

I tend to work best with people who are ready to dig deep and who appreciate a direct, honest (but always caring) approach.

What you can expect from me

I'll help you explore your challenges with curiosity and openness. We'll work together to figure out the approach that will work best for you.
