Hi there, I'm Jennifer!

I have five years of professional experience in the behavioral health field, primarily working with individuals who are looking to overcome addiction in agency and hospital settings. As the wife of a physician and someone who has worked closely with healthcare professionals, I understand firsthand how compassion fatigue can take a toll.

My focus

The therapeutic approaches I use are tailored to my client's specific needs. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice as it offers tools and has shown to be effective for folks looking to explore specific coping skills.
