Getting to know Jennifer Escalera
Hello, my name is Jennifer Escalera, LCSW! I have been working in the mental health field since 1998 and have been a licensed clinical social worker since 2008. I earned my Master's in Social Work from California State University, Long Beach. My approach to therapy is psychospiritual and holistic. I help clients explore the root causes of their struggles by guiding you to access insight through a mind-body-spirit approach so you can improve your self-care, relationships, work-life balance, and heal from past traumas.
My approach
My therapy style is client-centered, incorporating mindfulness, relaxation techniques, and providing a non-judgmental, safe space to explore uncomfortable feelings. This helps you release what is holding you back from reaching your goals and overall well-being.
My focus
I typically work with women in high-demand or leadership positions and service-based professionals such as social workers, therapists, wellness practitioners, and executives. I support clients dealing with chronic stress, feeling overwhelmed, imposter syndrome, anxiety, career dissatisfaction, unresolved childhood trauma, breakups, and the desire to end toxic relationships and intergenerational traumas.
My communication style
I am authentic and use a non-judgmental tone with my clients. I am genuine in my approach, and when addressing sensitive areas, I remain thoughtful and mindful in how I explore these topics with clients to help them gain insight and find solutions. I also use humor, creating a safe and sacred space for clients to be authentic and raw.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have a deep passion for helping others grow and feel better. I have also been a client myself, seeking therapists and healing modalities to work through my own childhood traumas, stress, toxic relationships, and self-confidence.
My goals for you
My approach to goal setting with clients is collaborative, ensuring we work together toward your healing and growth.
