I’m Jenn! I’m a Michigander and obtained my master’s degree in social work from Western Michigan University- go broncos! I’m a licensed clinical independent social worker (LCISW) in the state of Minnesota and a licensed Master of Social Work (LMSW) in the state of Michigan, with a certification in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy. My primary focus is individual person-centered therapy with children, teens, and young adults, but I strive to integrate parents and caregivers into their child’s healing journey.

Over the years, I’ve completed advanced training in trauma-informed care, play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapist (TFCBT), and attachment-based approaches. I also have experience working in school settings, outpatient clinics, and private practice — supporting children and families through abuse recovery, anxiety, depression, grief, divorce, life transitions, relationships, and post-traumatic stress.

Every child is unique, and so is every therapeutic relationship. Whether we’re using talk therapy, art, games, or mindfulness practices, you can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can explore your thoughts and feelings, all while keeping the atmosphere light enough to make personal growth and healing feel a little less daunting.
