Getting to know Jenifer James
I am Jenifer James, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I have been in the behavioral health field for 8 years and a therapist for the past 5 years. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am licensed in Texas and Michigan, with extensive experience working with children, teens, and adults. I have provided counseling services in various settings, including in-home, a middle school clinic, a university college clinic, and a community healthcare clinic.
My experience includes helping clients cope with addictions, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and depression. I work with couples to repair trust, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional intimacy. My main focus in therapy is to provide a safe space for vulnerability, exploration, and building upon the skills you already possess. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Therapy is a process, and I allow you to set the expectations. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change. I am here to support and empower you on that journey!
What should a new client know about working with you?
In session, you can expect to gain a sense of visibility from our sessions. We work together to create a safe environment for growth so we can challenge the areas that are not working well to develop a healthier sense of self and connections to others. Our therapy space with be free of judgement so you feel comfortable revealing and redefining your true self!
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
