Getting to know Jennifer Nalls
I received my master’s degree in counseling with a specialization in marriage and family counseling from Governors State University. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign in Human Development and Family Studies. I completed my internship at Orland Township Youth and Family Services, where I worked with individuals, groups, youth, couples, and families. During my internship, I worked with children who experienced depression, anger, and low self-esteem. My work with couples and family consists of working with a wide range of issues, to help build stronger and more meaningful relational bonds.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I believe that effective counseling begins with developing a strong therapeutic relationship. I believe in fostering an environment that promotes safety, authenticity, and freedom to share, heal and change without judgment. I understand that counseling is not an easy decision. Those who chose to engage in the therapeutic process, I believe are courageous.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I have a person-centered approach to counseling, where the client is the expert and the therapist is a partner in the therapeutic process. My therapeutic goal is to empower my clients by healing from past traumas and developing positive change within themselves. To achieve this goal, I utilize various techniques based on the client’s needs. Techniques I utilize are Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman, Family Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focus Therapy. As a therapist, I strive to help clients understand themselves, their feelings, and build on strengths to attain personal growth in their lives.
