The care you deserve

Finding balance in the lives we lead is essential to leading healthy lives. Sometimes in the everyday stress of daily life, it's difficult to find that balance. As a therapist, I work with clients to help them find the best treatment plan for their individual problems. In my experience, a collaborative approach works best for most treatment plans.

About

We listen, act, and transform

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of Virginia. I've been providing services in private practice since 2013 and really enjoy working with military families, teens, and those in the LGBTQ community. My approach utilizes mostly Narrative therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-focused therapy, and most of the treatment plans I collaborate with include psychosocial education and some lifestyle changes. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, and ADHD. My educational background from Capella University includes a Master's degree in Marriage and Family therapy as well as a Master's degree in Psychology. Having completed an active duty tour in the Air Force, and then serving as an Air Force spouse for twenty-one years, I have a unique understanding of military culture. As a parent, I understand how difficult it is to manage professional time versus personal time. Please email me or feel free to text as I often will not have time to pick up the phone due to being in session with clients. Please note I offer individual and family sessions, I do not offer couples sessions.

Testimonials

“ I don't know what everyone else expects from THERAPY.....but my favorite thing about Jennifer is it feels like talking to your favorite Auntie you can trust. It made me feel, always, like we were drinking a cup of tea on a porch just talking about life. ”

Previous client

“Thoughtful, supportive and knowledgeable, Jennifer was extremely easy to get to know right from the start. I became comfortable with her quickly, and she recognized and adapted to the style of communicator and resource-sharing I prefer with a counselor.”

Previous client

“Jennifer has been a huge help to talk with. She’s helped me work to accept the things that are out of my control, as well as feel more comfortable/confident with my own abilities. I would have no trouble highly recommending her.”
