Hi there, I'm Jennifer! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience helping individuals and couples strengthen communication, deepen connection, and navigate life’s emotional challenges with clarity.

Whether you’re in a relationship that feels off-track or you're an individual looking to get unstuck, therapy can offer relief before the breakdown happens. Together, we’ll slow things down, tune into what matters, and build a path forward that feels aligned with who you are and where you want to go. My approach My approach is more collaborative.

My communication style As a provider, I pride myself on working to provide a safe and open environment for all of my clients. I work to provide clear, open communication in a nonjudgmental space. I practice active listening and working daily to ensure clients feel heard and prioritized. My journey to mental healthcare I love to discuss how I became a clinician. My initial major in college was Biology. I took my first undergraduate psychology course and fell in love with the human mind and how it functions. It has been a joy for me throughout my career to be a part of others' journeys and processes of change.
