Hi there, I'm Jennifer!

Few things are more difficult as a parent than seeing your child struggle. So commonly parents experience anger, fear, shame, or hopelessness. I am here to help strengthen your understanding of and connection with your child, as well as to help your child have a better understanding of themselves.

My focus

I work with teens, especially those who have experienced trauma, are neurodivergent, exploring their identity, or seeking to learn more about themselves. Together, we will work on making meaning of your experiences, identify what your goals are, and work together to help you get there.

My approach

Each family is unique, and therapy is not one size fits all. Therapy and goals are tailored to you and your child, and often includes fun and creativity to best meet your child’s needs. I believe everyone has the ability to have a full and fulfilling life, they just need the right resources and environment.
