Getting to know Jennifer Ankele

I believe in a mind, body, and soul approach to healing and that all healing is self-healing. I will be your guide as you work toward healing. I graduated from the University of Southern California with a Master's in Social Work and have been a therapist since 2004. I utilize various modalities to help people heal from trauma, grief, anxiety, and depression. I am EMDR-trained and trauma-informed. I also use CBT and Mindfulness. I am a certified yoga instructor and hypnotherapist. I teach breathwork, yogic science, and meditation. As an energy worker, I help people release emotions from their bodies and work with their chakras to support the healing process. I guide people to connect more deeply with their subconscious, higher self, or soul. When this connection occurs, joy and peace can be experienced. My approach I am trained in EMDR and am trauma-informed. I utilize CBT and Mindfulness along with grief and loss therapy. My focus I specialize in helping people work through trauma and a history of abuse, depression, grief and loss, anxiety, and panic attacks. I work with people 18 and older. I want to work with those seeking a holistic approach to therapy-one that focuses not just on the mind but also on the body and personal spiritual level.

Phenomenal service. She has helped me overcome a lot of traumas that I had. I can once again say, I’m happy.
She listens to me & gives me a different perspective on what I may be going through or thinking.
Even after saying I had been to therapy for over a decade, she continued to tell me general ways to solve anxiety even though I wasn't there for anxiety. She repetitively called my fiance my "boyfriend" no matter how much I corrected her, and she said she didn't want to work with me because she doesn't know how to handle people with autism.
