Jenna is incredibly intuitive, a patient listener, and a graceful challenger around painful patterns I am looking to interrupt. She connects the dots, responds with empathy and care, notices different perspectives, digs deeper, and offers alternatives and encouragement and jumping off points to exercise emotional muscles that need practice. I am grateful for her deep listening skills, relatability, willingness to go where the flow takes us, and intuition to recognize the deeper threads of what is happening and reframing when necessary. She shows deep care and compassion, checks in between sessions, and makes me feel very seen and known- even when that feels hard, I know she is on my team toward becoming the best version of myself I can be.

Made me feel comfortable from the start- got me out of my comfort zone in a good way that is helping me grow and learn a lot about myself and the situations I go through in life.

Jenna makes me feel very comfortable to talk to her about things that are bothering me. She has been great at listening and helping me with my emotions and feelings, and giving me new coping skills that help me with the struggles that I am having. I feel very confident in her knowledge. Sometimes it’s hard to think about where I was when I first started meeting with her and where I am now. It’s like the difference between night and day. I owe this change to her positive and supportive interactions.

Talking with Jenna is easy. I appreciate that she listens and responds compared to previous therapy sessions I've had where i felt like i just talked and got zero feedback from my therapist. She checks in here and there too besides just the appointment calls

Jenna has been so helpful at a time when I really needed someone to listen to me .

Jenna is a great therapist and I like that she checks in a few times a week just to see how I’m doing.

Jenna is wonderful - I had no experience with therapy, so was very anxious about what to expect, how it might make me feel, hesitation with disclosing personal thoughts and info, etc. Within a few minutes of our session, Jenna had already made me feel completely comfortable, welcome, and safe. She's fantastic (with cool art!) and has night options, which could be very helpful for people whose life and work schedules don't line up with standard office hours.
