Jennifer Hobbs

Therapist

Virtual • Durham, NC


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.
