Great to meet you!

My name is Jennifer and I have been a therapist for about 14 years. I was raised in a Caribbean household, so therapy was not really talked about, although we all needed it. I became a therapist for those who never thought about it, learned about it or even wanted it.

I am married, a mom/step-mom of 6 and one heavenly step-daughter. Marriage is challenging, and so are child-rearing, divorce, and co-parenting; I have been through it all. I am hilarious in my own mind (never mind what my family says). I am empathetic and fully understand that therapy and vulnerability are hard, but I am willing to listen, so come talk to me.

My approach to therapy

I primarily work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and adjustment challenges. Through cognitive reframing, coping strategies, support, and resilience-building, I help clients reconnect with themselves or establish a new sense of normal.

I also work with couples (dating, partnered, married, etc.) and can provide pre-marital (non-religious) counseling.

I work with active duty military and veterans as well.

What you can expect from me

I like short term, solution focused therapy but I am a "regular person" who sometimes stumbles over her words when trying to be insightful.
