Hi. I am an LMHC, licensed mental health counselor, in Massachusetts, with more than 20 years of professional experience working with at risk youth and their families, as well as individuals looking to make positive changes toward a better life. I have served as an alternative education teacher, school counselor, outpatient therapist, and in home therapist working toward family stabilization. I have experience in helping clients with behavioral health disorders, including ADHD, oppositional defiant and conduct disorders, mood disorders, those experiencing stress and anxiety, symptoms and struggles related to trauma, and also helped those challenged by family conflicts and parenting issues. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I work toward helping individuals tap into their strengths to solve problems and make progress toward their goals with hope and confidence. Whether you are registering yourself or your child, taking the first step to sign up for therapy requires bravery. It takes courage to recognize the need for support, to take steps toward building a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take action to create change. I am here to support and empower you on that journey. I am proud of you for getting started, and I look forward to us working together! Talk soon. Jen
