Jennifer Stevens
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
About Jennifer
I specialize in working with adults who are navigating ADHD, anxiety and overthinking, depression, relationship challenges and breakups, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy helping people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or frustrated by patterns they’re having difficulty changing. My approach is warm, conversational, and practical, combining a supportive, nonjudgmental space with thoughtful insight and actionable strategies to help clients better understand themselves, build effective coping skills, and move forward with greater confidence.
I have a passion for helping people to examine their history and patterns in order to find the true center of the issues that are hindering them. I explore the various ways in one’s life that symptoms present, and to work to understand the function and underlying meanings. Using that understanding, I aim to help my clients develop lifelong skills to take control of their behavior and live fulfilling lives.
I’m trained in mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral and psycho-dynamic therapies. I use a holistic approach to therapy and have extensive experience in various settings working with relational issues, blended families, anxiety, depression and life transitions.
