About me

Empowering Others to Live Happier, More Productive Lives. I am Jennifer Evans, LPC, LMHC. I am a board-certified therapist in multiple states and over 15 years of counseling experience. I am passionate about effecting change and helping work with people to achieve insight to gain maximum potential and reach their most desired visions and goals. I know personally and professionally how difficult it is to get here and I am proud of your first step and commitment to change. I know I can be valued support as we work together to reach success, insight, and overcome emotional and psychosocial stressors.
A little more about me, I was born and raised in Florida, did my undergraduate at Florida State University, and moved to Virginia to Eastern Virginia Medical School, where I studied clinical counseling and received my Master’s in Art Therapy. As a military spouse, we relocated many times. I redeveloped my career each duty station, which gave me a myriad of experiences with various populations and personal insight on how difficult it can be to start over or have to find your place and career with so many unknowns surrounding you. My passion for treatment is trauma and life experiences that lead us to feel fearful, unsafe, and saddened; sometimes with no explanation as to why we feel the way we do.
I work with my client’s in a person-centered format with cognitive-behavioral underpinnings and psychoeducation to not only work through and build a better understanding of ourselves but the experiences and beliefs that built us and ways to endure and build resiliency to better manager those feelings so they are not as overwhelming in the future. Many times these thoughts can affect the decisions we make and our current behaviors. We will work through these to build better responses and approaches to behavior that have lasting impacts on success in the future.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jennifer Evans. 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.

Written on Mar 01, 2022 after therapy with Jennifer for 1 year and 6 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, career difficulties, and coping with life changes

I have been with Jennifer for a year and a half and she has helped me tremendously. I am in a significantly better place with myself both personally and professionally and that is in large part due to the support I have received from Jennifer on a weekly basis. Therapy is not a one and done solution. It is a lifelong journey. I am lucky to have found someone who listens and helps me stay grounded during difficult times.

Written on Oct 30, 2021 after therapy with Jennifer for 8 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, self esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue

Thank you for all the help that you're given me. I'm in a better spot now. If it wasn't for your support when I got with teen counseling back when I did, i'm almost scared to even think about how things might have gone. It was a really trying time and you helped me through it. Thank you as well for being the first ever person I could share about my family and (bits of) history with. That was also a big "healing" factor for me.

I might definitely have to come back at some point, but I'm "done" for now. Such is life! Hope you're doing well! Take care and best wishes!

I think Jennifer is a great counselor not only does she respond in a timely manner but she always has workshops and worksheets for you based on what your goals are and what problems you're facing and she always goes in very specific details of ways to help you get through your day by having you think about affirmations and mindfulness activities i know for sure that has helped me alot .

I've been working with Jennifer Evans for a few months now dealing with anxiety related issues and addressing long-standing negative coping mechanisms. I've made amazing progress in identifying underlying issues and establishing techniques to overcome my anxiety. Jennifer uses a variety of methods and tailors therapy based on feedback. She is quick to respond, is extremely caring and always insightful. I truly believe she has been integral to the progress I’ve made in a fairly short amount of time. I highly recommend this therapist and am encouraged by how effective online therapy can be.
