About

With over 20 years of experience in the counseling field, Jennifer holds a Bachelor's degree from Rutgers University and two Master's degrees from Rowan University and the University of Phoenix. Her counseling style is interactive, empathetic, and warm, as she believes listening is the key to success in a therapeutic relationship. Jennifer's approach to therapy is client-centered, empowering clients to be the experts in their lives and determine the direction and depth of treatment.
Drawing on multiple treatment modalities, Jennifer takes a strengths-based and solutions-focused approach to guide clients in identifying their strengths and developing personalized treatment plans to achieve their goals. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Supportive Therapies, and Problem-Solving Strategies, Jennifer helps clients explore the relationships between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to identify dysfunctional thought patterns leading to self-destructive beliefs and behaviors. Additionally, she incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support clients in developing skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation, with the ultimate goal of moving clients toward a life that involves the capacity for experiencing joy and freedom.
