Jennifer James, LMFT

Jennifer James, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Jennifer! Nice to meet you, I'm Jennifer James. I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I'm passionate about helping my clients experience healing and learn the skills they need to manage challenges in their lives and relationships. My approach My therapeutic approach is somewhat eclectic. I blend pieces of person-centered therapy with self-compassion, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. My focus I typically work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and relationship problems. I also have expertise in working with trauma, abuse, and domestic violence. My communication style It is my goal to create a warm, calm, non-judgmental, and safe space for my clients to share their thoughts. I see it as my job to help my clients see new options they could use to solve problems in their lives and to gently help them make choices that can lead to a healthy and fulfilling life. My journey to therapy After a series of mishaps in my twenties, I went through a depressive episode without realizing it. I went to the doctor thinking there was something wrong with my thyroid, and he explained the truth of the situation and sent me to a therapist. She changed my life and worldview and showed me the path toward wellness. I was so amazed and impressed that I decided to do the same for others and became a therapist myself. I realize that when people come in for therapy, they are often in the lowest and most difficult situations of their lives. It is my goal to support them and help them find the tools to move through their problems and create lives and relationships that support them. My goals for you When it comes to goal setting, I usually ask my clients what they would like to accomplish during treatment and what their goals for therapy are, then do my best to help them achieve those goals.
