Professional statement

Jenny is a therapist and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker practicing in Rhode Island and New York City with over 10 years of clinical experience. She works with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and life transitions, with a special interest in young adults and college students.

Jenny’s approach is collaborative and rooted in psychodynamic theory, while integrating aspects of narrative and relational therapy, trauma-informed care, and motivational interviewing. Her style is warm, supportive, interactive, and curious. She believes the therapeutic relationship is essential for meaningful change. She prioritizes creating a space where clients feel safe enough to explore and better understand their thoughts, feelings, and patterns in relationships. Through this process, clients often develop greater clarity and ease in both their personal and professional lives.

Jenny offers virtual sessions as well as in-person appointments at her office on Broadway in Providence.


Message to clients

I approach my role with warmth, curiosity, humility, and respect, as it's important to me to create a space where you can be your whole self. Together, we'll make sense of your inner world - your experiences, relationships, thoughts, feelings, patterns - so you can move through your life with greater ease and clarity.

Sessions can be held in my Providence office or virtually.

If this resonates with you and you feel we might be a good fit, I invite you to reach out to learn more.
