Jennifer Schneider, LCSW, LICSW

About me

I am a clinical social worker, licensed in Massachusetts and California, with over 8 years of experience working as a counselor, clinical case manager and clinical supervisor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, bipolar disorder, substance abuse disorders ADHD, gender identity and LGBTQIA+ issues. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. Additionally, I specialize in working with individuals in nontraditional relationships, such as non-monogamy.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines relational, humanistic, and solution-focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Additionally, I have a special interest in both mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques in therapy.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
