About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)(pronouns she/her) based in Tennessee with fifteen years of experience working with people making change in their life. I have worked with people challenged by depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance use issues, and life changing situations. My approach combines solution focused, client centered, and strengths based drawing heavily from Cognitive Behavioral Theory.
When working with clients I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, positive, respectful, and safe. Creating a safe zone for all who are looking to make some positive changes in their lives is my main goal. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in doing great things and overcoming things that challenge you. I am so proud of you for taking the first step towards making positive changes and achieving your goals. You are worthy and you are enough!

Jennifer gives the feeling of being very in tune with my needs and helps me create and work towards concrete goals, and guides me to celebrate my successes when I cannot see them myself.

Jennifer is the first counselor that I have been completely comfortable with! She is amazing and comes prepared each time. I am excited to continue with her!

Jennifer is great! We meshed well from our first meeting. I’ve been with her about six months. She is down to earth and I feel very “safe” with her. Her communication style is direct and she doesn’t “push” a topic if I’m not ready to visit it.

She just gets me. For the first time in my life I finally feel like someone sees me.
