Hi, I’m Jen
My practice is intentionally dedicated to women and LGBTQ+ neurodiverse couples. My work is informed by both clinical expertise and lived experience, bringing an added depth of understanding to the therapeutic relationship.
I believe therapy works best when you don’t have to perform, mask who you are, or fit into someone else’s idea of who you should be. Together, we can understand what has shaped you, strengthen your trust in yourself, and create more choice in how you move through your life.
What It’s Like to Work With Me
I’m warm, engaged, curious, and direct when it’s useful. Therapy with me is not distant or overly clinical. I bring my personality into the room and want you to be able to show up without performing or masking. Trust is build over time as we build our relationship.
Relational at the core and integrative in practice, I draw from attachment-based, trauma-informed, IFS- and AEDP-informed approaches. I pay close attention to what happens between us, adapting the work to the person in front of me.
My Approach
Background & Experience
I have experience in both community mental health and private practice. My work has included trauma, neurodivergence, relationship concerns, major life transitions, and longstanding mental health challenges, with a particular focus on women and LGBTQ+ clients.
I integrate relational, attachment, IFS, AEDP, and feminist approaches to understand protective patterns and create lasting emotional change. In my work, I integrate tools and foundational principles from Level 1 training in Relational Life Therapy (RLT); Gottman Method; IFS-Informed through IFS Online Circle: Foundations of the IFS Model; Imago Relationship Therapy Informed (Module 1).
Outside the Therapy Room
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll usually find me near the ocean with my two dogs, gardening, reading, or drinking coffee early in the morning while watching the birds in my backyard. I value a simple, grounded life—and that helps me stay present and connected in my work and relationships.
