Jennifer brings diverse personal experiences and cultural backgrounds into her role as a holistic clinician. With roots in Sioux Native American heritage and a family that spans from Hispanic to Black American culture with spiritual and cultural traditions, she understands the profound importance of connection through emotions in the human experience. Jennifer doesn't view her clients as mere cases to diagnose but as individuals, each carrying their unique stories and wounds in need of genuine human healing. Be assured of being heard and affirmed in what you feel, knowing that beneath the surface of our diverse identities, we all share in the profound human experience of emotions and the longing for connection. Her approach is a testament to the power of empathy, understanding, and the universal language of our shared humanity. Jennifer has worked in mental health for over 15 years and specializes in assisting trauma survivors, from complex childhood wounds to those of first responders and the military. Her path to becoming a licensed therapist was profoundly influenced by her personal connections to these communities, including being a military spouse, a proud military mom, and having family members who are police officers and first responders. These personal experiences have given her a deep understanding of the unique challenges these individuals and their families face when dealing with trauma, PTSD, and addiction. Jennifer's approach to therapy is rooted in her core values of empathy, compassion, respect, and autonomy. She creates a safe and nonjudgmental space for her clients to express themselves and feel heard authentically. Her commitment to continuous learning and professional development is evident through her involvement in workshops, conferences, and research-based trauma work. She has conducted research on the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions in treating trauma-related symptoms among military personnel and first responders, providing valuable insights that inform her practice. Jennifer is excited about the evolving mental health landscape, particularly the destigmatization of seeking therapy and the integration of holistic approaches into mental health care. She believes in the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit in the healing process and is dedicated to being a part of this cultural shift. Her personal experiences, commitment to research, and application of trauma healing techniques make her a rockstar clinician who can truly connect with and empower her clients on their journey to healing and growth.
