You Deserve to Feel Confident, Grounded, and at Peace.
Therapy is a place that invites you to come home to yourself; home to both your familiar self and the self you envision becoming. Together, we untangle what’s tense beneath the surface to attend to old wounds and align with new life transitions alike, with the utmost care and curiosity. My goal is to walk beside you as you learn to clearly hear and trust your deep inner knowing, reconnect with your resilience, and create a life that is authentic, meaningful and free.
Taking the step to begin therapy is an act of great courage and self-care. This is a space where you can slow down – to better discern and delineate what you want, breathe deeply, laugh loudly and explore what’s been and what will be.
We’ll work gently (and at your own pace) to bring awareness, healing and balance to the aspects of your life that need attention, revamping and nurturance.
“Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom.”

My name is Jennifer, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and founder of MHCC. I work with individuals, families and clinical associates and volunteer for a non-profit organization that offers clinical crisis services.
