Hi! My name is Jenny, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have experience in community support services, inpatient and outpatient treatment, emergency departments, crisis management, and psychiatric residential programs.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, and life transitions.
Hi! I'm here to offer a space where you can unload openly, honestly, and without judgment. Sometimes you know exactly why you’re feeling the way you do, and other times you may simply feel unsure, and here that's okay! I am here to support you along the way.
I have been a licensed clinical social worker for over 15 years. My professional focus is on treating individuals between the ages of 13-65 with trauma, eating disorders and mood disorders. I am an EMDRIA approved EMDR consultant and certified in EMDR therapy. I have also experience working with law enforcement officers and family members. My goal is to empower and support clients to achieve their optimum wellbeing.
I am a person centered therapist with specialties ranging from trauma, CBT and ASD. I have a history working with ages spanning early childhood to middle aged. I provide a holistic approach that incorporates creative and unique interventions.
I specialize in working with individuals who feel stuck in unhealthy or confusing relationship patterns, including those recovering from narcissistic abuse or navigating attachment wounds. Together, we focus on building self-trust, strengthening boundaries, and creating more secure, fulfilling connections.
I also enjoy working with teens and young adults who are navigating important life transitions, whether that’s adjusting to college, exploring identity, managing anxiety, or figuring out friendships and dating. This stage of life can feel overwhelming, and therapy can offer a space to better understand yourself and build confidence in who you are becoming.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fairfield
Finding a therapist in Fairfield starts with getting clear on the type of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or a life transition, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your specific concerns can make a meaningful difference. Common provider types include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.
Fairfield County is home to many mental health providers, but narrowing your options can still feel time-consuming. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who offers Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), someone with experience in couples or family therapy, or a provider who offers virtual sessions so you can fit appointments around a busy schedule. A free phone consultation is another way to gauge fit before committing to ongoing care.
Therapy in Fairfield can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see your estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit — making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
