Jennifer Tennyson

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work and experience across a variety of settings, including hospitals, assisted living and nursing facilities, public health, primary care offices, and private practice. This diverse background has allowed me to support individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions.

I work with adults ages 18 and older, with a special focus on college-aged students, individuals experiencing relationship challenges, those recovering from narcissistic relationships, and the aging population. I help clients build skills in stress management, improve self-esteem, process grief, and navigate complex emotional experiences.

I was drawn to this field by a strong desire to support individuals during difficult times and to help them find clarity, resilience, and meaningful change. My goal is to walk alongside each client as they work toward healing and a more fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, client-centered, and compassionate. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered. I use an eclectic blend of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, mindfulness techniques, and trauma-informed care. I tailor each session to meet the unique needs and goals of the individual.

Clients can expect a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where they feel safe to share openly. In our sessions, I take a collaborative and goal-oriented approach, working alongside you to better understand your experiences, identify patterns, and develop practical strategies for change. I balance listening and reflection with active guidance. Sessions are tailored to your unique needs and pace—whether you’re looking for space to process emotions, build coping skills, or work through specific challenges. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling heard, supported, and equipped with something meaningful to carry forward.
