Jennifer Johns is a licensed professional counselor with a Master’s degree and extensive experience in the mental health field. She understands that many individuals feel uncertain about starting therapy or may have had disappointing experiences in the past. To alleviate such concerns, Jennifer emphasizes the importance of connection and rapport in fostering a comfortable therapeutic environment. Her approach prioritizes communication, both inwardly and outwardly, which she has effectively taught to her clients to help them manage and overcome various mental health symptoms. Jennifer believes that while therapy can be transformative, many people prefer to cultivate skills that allow them to navigate life confidently, leading to a timely discharge from therapy. She has a wealth of experience working with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, oppositional defiance, family issues, grief, suicidal ideation, self-harm, stress management, mood dysregulation, trauma, and reactive attachment issues, among others. Her primary goals include creating a safe, non-judgmental space for clients, where every issue, big or small, can be addressed, equipping them with tangible skills to apply outside of session, and fostering a sense of enjoyment in the therapeutic process. Jennifer welcomes clients of all ages, starting from five years and up. If a client presents a challenge she cannot address, she is committed to helping them find a suitable referral for their needs.
