I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, in Texas with 17 years of professional work experience. I received my undergraduate degree in psychology from the University of Texas Austin and a masters degree in social work from the University of Houston.

I have experience in helping clients with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders, gender identity and LGBTQ issues, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, ARFID, binge eating disorder, OCD, personality disorders, substance use, and co-occurring/ dual diagnosis. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

I have had multiple therapists over the last 6 years I’ve been going to therapy and Jennifer is by far the best therapist I’ve ever had. She is a compassionate listener, gives excellent and intentional advice, and asks really introspective and productive questions. She speaks with such a casual but caring nature that instantly makes me feel comfortable and at ease and she has such a way of validating my emotions and experiences. One of the best things about Jennifer is her ability to listen to something I’m going through and relate it back to something I talked about weeks or months ago. She takes notes, she pays attention, and she’s lovingly honest. Many times she has said “that reminds me of when you talked about this…” and I go “omg you’re so right”. This is someone that cares deeply about helping others and she has helped me through so many breakthroughs. What a gift to have Jennifer as a therapist! Endlessly grateful for her guidance.

Jennifer is AMAZING! She has helped me unlock many internal obstacles that I, myself, didn’t know I have kept suppressed for so long and has genuinely helped me learn more about where they stem from. She listens and provides the BEST feedback to everything I have to say (no matter how big or little it is). She is the BEST. She provides a safe, non judgment, open space to say everything and anything freely!

She’s great. I wish there were more of her so she could talk to more people. 10/10 would recommend.

Jennifer is the absolute best. She is caring, compassionate, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable. She always knows not only what to say, but how to say it. I can’t recommend her enough.
