See Jennifer's Details for:
Jennifer Bull is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing telehealth with California clients. She works with young adults and middle-age professionals who have reached some level of achievement in school or work or relationships -- but who feel really stuck. Her clients struggle with intense self-criticism, maintaining close relationships, and making important decisions that could propel their lives forward. Perceptions of poor choices, procrastination on important activities, unwanted behavior patterns, as well as grief and shame, have led Jennifer's clients to experience bouts of anxiety, panic attacks, unexplained anger, depression, and sometimes despair. These feelings cause more confusion and fear when clients feel that everything in their life should be "going right."
Jennifer’s practice is guided by several modalities including existential, psychodynamic, somatic experiencing, and CBT, but most especially AEDP. Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy is informed by extensive research in neuroplasticity, polyvagal theory, attachment theory, and the concept of transformational healing experiences within the therapeutic dyad. Jennifer guides clients to understand and move beyond defensive behavioral and relationship strategies which might have gained them love and even survival in their earlier life, but which are now holding them back. Through a secure and safe therapeutic environment, Jennifer and her clients process intense emotions and traumatic experiences to move towards a fuller understanding and embrace of the client's true, core self, leading clients to more authentic, integrated ways of being and living.
Jennifer brings broad professional and life experience to her therapy work. In addition to a Master's in Counseling Psychology and extensive clinical practice, Jennifer has an MBA and worked in the private and nonprofit sectors for over 25 years. Jennifer has been successfully married for more than 20 years and has two teenage children. She practices remote telehealth therapy from her overseas home office.
