About me

Hello, and welcome to a wonderful opportunity here at Betterhelp!

I have been active in the mental health world since 2003, and completed my graduate degree in IL in the summer of 2011. I started my professional career at a women's residential treatment facility in IL, which primarily focused on mood disorders, eating disorders, trauma, and substance use disorders. After a few years there, I then became a team leader for a Residential Program within the largest non-profit mental health provider in IL. Our focus there was on housing for those with mental health diagnoses and homelessness, and we mostly helped and treated high spectrum disorders, such as Schizophrenia. Once I reached fulfillment within that role, I moved further into the world of Medicaid/Medicare and began working for the largest insurer in IL. I worked with a large caseload of members needing guidance, support and extra services for physical and mental health needs.
I moved to Florida in June of 2022, and currently reside in the Sunshine State with my two feline fur boys and an active clinician's license here as well!
Overall, I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Jennifer is a one of a kind, genuine soul. She is tough but in a compassionate and strong willed way. She listens to you and takes the time to help figure out your goals and to work with them. Jennifer is very honest and let’s you know what’s up but, she will empathize and sympathize for and with you as she can understand quite a lot. I am very thankful to work with her!
