Jennifer Hobbs

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families, and more than 20 years of experience supporting youth and families across home, school, and community settings.

I work with individuals and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioral concerns, trauma, school-related stress, life transitions, family conflict, and concerns related to safety and emotional well-being.

My approach to counseling is practical, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I believe meaningful change happens when individuals and families feel supported while also developing tools, insight, and healthy patterns that promote long-term growth.

When working with children and teens, I value partnering with parents and caregivers as an important part of the process, and not to be pushed aside during the treatment process of any minor.

Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, my goal is to provide a thoughtful, supportive space where meaningful progress can take place.

My work is focused on helping clients better understand what they are experiencing while building practical tools to manage emotions, improve communication, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change based on their goals and needs.

When working with children and adolescents, I believe parents and caregivers are an important part of the process. My goal is to partner with families by helping strengthen communication, increase understanding, and support healthy patterns that contribute to long-term success at home, school, and in everyday life.

Our first session is an opportunity to get to know one another and begin understanding what brings you to counseling. We will talk about your concerns, your experiences, what has been working, what has not, and what you hope to gain from therapy.

This first meeting is also a time for us to identify goals together and determine what support may be most helpful moving forward. You do not need to have everything figured out before coming in.

My goal is to create an environment that feels respectful, comfortable, and productive, where you can speak openly, feel heard, and begin taking meaningful steps toward change. From there, we will work together to build practical strategies and support progress toward your goals over time.
