About me
Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor- Supervisor as well as a School Counselor. I have worked as a Middle School, High School, and Social-Emotional Learning Counselor for more than nine years. Before moving into the counseling profession I taught elementary school. I have worked with students from kindergarten to 12th grade.
I have helped children and adolescents work through many different types of struggles. Some of the most prominent are relationship issues, family conflict, self-harm, suicidal thinking, school-work stress, peer pressure, bullying, sexting/dating violence, and much more. These topics are extremely difficult and sometimes really hard to face; especially as a teen. I feel that I find positive ways to connect with each teen and that I am able to relate and understand their perspective. I treat each child/teen with a level of respect and a level of autonomy which helps them discover new ways to approach difficult circumstances.
If you are a teen or if you know of a teen struggling socially or emotionally I will help you navigate this journey.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Jennifer Parker. 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.
I love Jennifer, she is so sweet and understanding and never fails to give me great advice as well as supporting me.
She’s is an absolute professional!
She's great
Very caring and thoughtful. The follow up was amazing.
So far she has been good, my child has developed a trust with her which is very important for him to start talking through his issues and healing.
My son has had just a couple of sessions with Ms. Parker, and I am already seeing an improvement in his behavior. I am truly grateful for her knowledge and experience in this field. Too many times us as parents feel negligent in our parental duties and can't possibly understand everything our children are going through or dealing with. Ms. Parker is like a breath of fresh air for my son and I and has allowed me to breathe with ease knowing she is helping us both get refocused and enhancing our relationship. I strongly recommend Ms., Parker for your teen's therapeutic needs.
She helped my daughter through a rough time at school. We are very grateful for her!
Love Jennifer! teencounseling.com is lucky to have her, I hope they don’t let her go! She has helped me tremendously with all my problems, even if they were tiny she still cared, you can’t find anyone as amazing as her, her super power is being a therapist! I never felt judged and always understood by her, I’m a very closed off and introverted person and even she was able to help me because she really cares about her clients. She was my therapist for almost 3 years!! Thanks for everything :)
Love Jennifer! Always there for me to listen.
Jennifer is great
I’ve had her as a therapist for over a year now and my review is still the same. She is very kind. Very accepting. She checks in on me when she notices in short or am not replying. She knows I have life consuming me, and will encourage me. She has been amazing since the beginning. I appreciate teencounseling.com for connecting me with a therapist that really does care.
Listens, and respects me. Provides great insight and tips to help me with self care.
Jennifer is amazing and has been helping me for over a year now.
We originally wanted a male counselor for our son. We were unable to find one in a timely manner however Miss Jennifer took her time to check on us until we’ve decided to go ahead and use her as a counselor. She has been phenomenal ever since. My son seems to be very open with her which is more than he has any other counselor we’ve used in the past. I would highly recommend Jennifer.
I've been talking with Jennifer for about 9 months, and I can't even begin to explain how thoughtful, non-judgmental, and caring she is. Super available, always checks in, and actually cares about each individual and genuinely listening to you and hearing from you.
Jennifer has been supportive of my busy schedule and doesn’t insist on a set appointment. She has been flexible and texted with me when ever I’ve needed. That has been such a big help with all that has been going on in our hospital! She is not pushy or judgmental of your issues and concerns. She is just supportive. Thanks!!
My life has changed so much since I started talking to Jenifer. My anxiety and depression has gotten so much better over the past few weeks!
Jennifer is very insightful and understands me. She helps me to deal with my problems in an effective manner.
She’s been amazing. Understanding what I’ve been through and walking me through different steps to overcome my past.
I love Jennifer! Her advice and guidance helped me through my situation.
Jennifer has been a tremendous help to me as I navigate this season of life. Her support in helping me find answers, understand myself and grow in my confidence has made such a difference for me. I would highly recommend Jennifer as a Counselor to anyone looking to find support.
Jennifer seems to understand what I am experiencing and offers possible solutions through messaging. I do wish we could talk on the phone or video chat more, writing (in my opinion) isn't always the best at conveying stories, thoughts, feelings etc.
