Licensed Master Social Worker, LMSWThey/them or she/her
Licensed Master Social Worker, LMSWTherapy is a playground for interpersonal relationships. It can be hard to set boundaries, ask for needs or express certain feelings, and therapy is a space to feel, to practice and to explore so what feels hard or even impossible could slowly be more integrated in one's life. Jennie works with individuals and couples of all ages, genders, sexual orientations, body sizes, and cultural identities. They come from the mindset that every person is an expert of themselves and believes therapy can be a helpful tool to connect folks back to their intrinsic wisdom of how to heal.
When working with individuals, Jennie's approach combines mindfulness-based practices, motivational interviewing and compassionate inquiry. She also often incorporates elements of internal family systems to increase one's sense of understanding and compassion towards all parts of themselves. They also invite folks into experiential somatic exercises when individuals would like support feeling a greater sense of safety and connectedness within their bodies.
Jennie's practice is informed by trainings in internal family systems and their experience with and passion for somatic and relational based counseling, and their commitment to social justice and anti-oppression work. It is also informed by her identities as a white, queer, Jewish, genderfluid clinician. Much of our experience in the world is due to how people treat us and that in turn impacts our internal worlds.
Let's delve into your stories together, explore the strengths within all parts of you and rework some narratives that hold you back from embodying the you that you want to be.
LGBTQIA, gender, and sexuality topics - Exploring topics of sexuality, gender, and identity; coping with discrimination and oppression; navigating relationship, family, and cultural challenges
Anxiety - Coping with excessive worry, nervousness, or stress; intense discomfort in social settings (social anxiety); sudden and intense feelings of panic (panic disorder)
Relationship issues - Understanding one’s wants and needs in relationships; exploring patterns of interaction, addressing concerns, and strengthening satisfaction in relationships and dating
Shame Resilience - Often times shame, the voice in our head that tells us we are bad or unloveable, gets in the way of us having fufilling, meaningful relationships. Through increasing our shame resilience, we can increase our tolerance for mistakes and hearing feedback, which can lead to healthier personal and work relationships and greater overall life satisfaction.
Life transitions - Coping with difficult or impactful life changes, such as moving to a new area, relationship transitions, child rearing, or career changes; learning self-care to better manage resulting stress
Navigating oppression, privilege and labels - It can be challenging to figure out what we believe about ourselves authentically and what concepts and labels have been assigned to us by society, our families or by friends or partners. I can help you get clearer on your own inner voice to distinguish what your own boundaries and needs are.
