About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience working with young adults. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns and demographics including depression, anxiety, family problems, blending families, school or career challenges, and self-harm. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical and emotional trauma and abuse.

My therapy style is strengths based and compassionate! I believe in treating all human beings with respect, sensitivity, and complete compassion. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels and believe we are all beautifully unique! My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused brief therapy, and emotion focused therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs working with your individual strengths to assist you in finding the balance of all things to find your happy!

It takes incredible courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life. Together, we can take the first steps towards forward change. If you are ready to move forward towards that goal, I am here to support and help you embrace your empowered you!

I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jennifer Clapton. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Professional, attentive, and compassionate Jennifer creates a wonderful space for me to slow down, re-cal, and map out the babysteps so that I may serve others in my life.

Jennifer is one of the most talented and caring therapists I've ever met. Her level of technical expertise balanced with her pleasant personality is a great mixture for a therapist to have. Her sessions and style are warm and inviting which encourages openness and sharing. She listens completely non-judgementally and offers wonderful guidance and assistance with reframing negative thoughts and situations. I highly recommend her.

My teenage daughter and I felt like we connected very well with Jennifer. Her warm, lighthearted nature was just what we needed to feel safe and comfortable.

Work with me!
