About me

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I received my Masters Degree from Columbia University in New York, NY. I worked in psychiatric Emergency Rooms and on inpatient psychiatric units. Shortly after graduating from graduate school, I found myself drawn to the adolescent population. I worked intensively with them at an RTF (Residential Treatment Facility) in Manhattan. While in this position, I worked with teenagers, their families, the court system, schools and agencies designated to help and advocate for their well-being. For the past nine years, I have been working with adolescents on an outpatient basis.

Written on May 17, 2022 after therapy with Jennifer for 6 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, lgbt, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, coping with life changes, and adhd

I’ve been seeing therapists since I was a child and Jennifer is one of the best I’ve ever had. She is incredibly validating, insightful and honest. She knows the right questions to ask and when to do it. I can say I want to tackle specific topics or we can see where the session takes us but I’ve always finished feeling like I’ve accomplished something. She is quick to respond to messages outside of our weekly session and the quality of her responses never dwindles due to it being through the message portal rather than our live sessions. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Jennifer has been wonderful, patient, and professional since day one. Working with her led me to advising a close friend to use teencounseling.com and he has loved the service as well.

Jen is a wonderful therapist. We sought her help for couples counseling and found her to be impartial, communicative and knowledgeable. We really appreciate her ability to keep us on topic and she helped us to see our partners point of view. So glad we have her has our therapist and highly recommended her. Thanks Jen!

I'm not great at reviews , simply due to being embarrassed about my own writing skills. My therapist Jennifer works as long you are willing and open to putting in the work. Remember relationships are work, when you don't want to put that in anymore. Decide what's next for you.

Jennifer is a professional, caring, and encouraging therapist. She knew how to talk to my adolescent 16 year old son. She met him during a very difficult time for him. She knew how to connect, guide him, and talk to him. I would recommend Jennifer any time.

She is a true gem. Could not recommend her enough, especially as it relates to relationship issues and understanding oneself. You only come across people like Jennifer once in a lifetime. I have so much respect for this woman, my situation was and is as chaotic as can be. She is helping me see lights otherwise unimaginable.
