all about jenni

Jenni believes there is no universal recipe card for navigating life. Instead, she views each person’s journey as a unique blend of ingredients: experiences, skills, and stories that shape who they are. With curiosity, compassion, and patience, Jenni meets clients exactly where they are. She values the power of genuine human connection and is dedicated to cultivating healthy, compassionate relationships with each person she works with.

Jenni understands that therapy is not always an easy space to enter, yet she hopes her clients leave each session feeling empowered to take one step forward at a time. Trained in both psychotherapy and art therapy, Jenni recognizes that not every mode of expression resonates with everyone. She offers creative expression as an option for emotional exploration, while honoring that meaningful growth can take many forms. Her goal is to build authentic, lasting connections and to support each client throughout their unique therapeutic journey, wherever it may lead.

No two individuals share the same life experience. Jenni believes that life is deeply personal and, at times, profoundly challenging. To her, every person who shows up for themselves embodies bravery, courage, and vulnerability. Jenni feels honored to walk alongside her clients as they navigate the ever-evolving process of healing and self-discovery.

how she works

Having worked in New York City hospitals, Jenni has supported patients at the height of emotional crisis while advocating for their needs and well-being. She has also worked with adults navigating adverse life circumstances, using a solution-focused approach to help them set and reach meaningful goals. These experiences have deepened Jenni’s understanding and appreciation of how challenging and unpredictable life can sometimes be.

In her practice, Jenni focuses on leaning into curiosity, leading with empathy, and encouraging thoughtful reflection. She draws from a range of therapeutic modalities, including here-and-now processing, humanistic and client-centered approaches, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness. Utilizing a non-judgemental approach, she aims to support each individual’s needs while collaborating with clients in a holistic, flexible way that honors the whole person.

Jenni’s experience includes working with adults of all ages navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, past and present trauma, medical challenges, and the complexities of everyday life. In your work together, you’ll explore greater self-awareness and cultivate a renewed sense of safety and control, while building coping tools and goals to support you in navigating life’s challenges. Jenni recognizes that every lived moment leads to the present, and she is honored to walk alongside you through this “now.”
