Getting to know Jennifer Nascimento

Hi there, I'm Jennifer! My name is Jennifer "Jenny" Nascimento, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Southern California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from California Baptist University. I work with adults and teenagers 14+ and specialize in anxiety, depression, emotional neglect, and relationships, using an integrative approach to therapy. I collaboratively work with my clients to support their progress toward healing and growth. My approach My style and approach are flexible and individualized with each client I work with. I most frequently use an integrative approach (Client-Centered, CBT, Attachment-Based, and others) to help create an environment that feels safe, supportive, and empathic. This allows us to work together toward meaningful change on their path forward. My focus My style and approach work well with adults and teenagers. Challenges in life and life transitions affect us all, no matter our age. Pressures, transitions, loss, and trauma can come from social experiences, work relationships, health, and home life, often manifesting as anxiety, depression, stress, and relational issues. I help my clients build self-awareness and skills, improve relationships, and tap into their strengths and abilities to create autonomy and feel better about themselves. My communication style My communication style is relaxed, calm, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable, seen, and heard without judgment, and to feel they can talk to me about anything they choose. My journey to mental healthcare I didn't return to school for my education until later in life. I have been intrigued by psychology since I was a teenager. I began taking college classes in my early 20s but paused to start a family. Over the years, I naturally became the person people gravitated toward to share their problems, and I was always there to listen and help.
