Jennifer has an undergraduate degree from Penn State and a Masters in Social Work from UNC at Chapel HIll.  She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapy Supervisor.  She  employs an eclectic approach with her clients which includes clinical skills honed over the past 35 plus years and rooted in Mindfulness, NeuroLinguisticProgramming (NLP), the Enneagram, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Play Therapy and trauma informed care.  Her personality rounds out her approach with sensitivity, common sense, gentleness, compassion, openness and humor. 

Her approach to therapy begins with understanding what each client or client family is really seeking.  She considers herself a partner on their journey toward self discovery and growth.  When she is working with children, she believes strongly in parental involvement.  She engages parents as partners in learning to help not only their children but the entire family grow closer and more connected, to be able to understand each other and help each other achieve success.    

Jennifer is also a Reiki Practitioner and an Approved Clinical Supervisor.
