She strongly believes building trust and strong rapport, enhancing self-awareness and reflection, and implementing skills to cope with powerful emotions and thoughts are important to the therapeutic journey. Jenn is an eclectic clinician, using a variety of modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma systems theory, motivational interviewing, family systems, and psychodynamic therapy. She also enjoys teaching mindfulness and other distress tolerance techniques, and is EMDR-informed. She is passionate about working with adolescents, adults, and families to support social and emotional success, cope with life changes, improve interpersonal skills, and heal from traumatic experiences.

During her spare time, Jenn enjoys hiking and camping, traveling the world, shopping locally to support small businesses, cooking, reading, and spending time with her cat, Luna. She is a strong believer in connecting with nature and other people, discovering one’s passions, and celebrating successes, no matter how big or small.
