Therapists in Lakeview, OH

At the start of 2022 I realized that through BetterHelp I could finally reach my goal to work private practice full - time. Through my career, I have primarily worked with adults in various settings, but in 2016 shifted my dedication to teenagers in the criminal justice system. I have Hospice experience which is where I gained my passion for grief and loss as well as dealing with phase of life changes. This hit home to me hard, in 2016 as I watched and cared for my mother who battled Ovarian Cancer. She passed away November 2019 and I took a step back from my private practice work and just focused on my healing as well as my work at the Juvenile Center. In August of 2020, I started back up with private practice and did this with BetterHelp. Once 2022 hit, I was ready to transition from working with teens in the juvenile justice system and the parents of juvenile delinquency, to taking a step with BetterHelp full time. I have experience with inpatient psychiatric care, crisis intervention, hospice, and chronic medical illness, as well as a wide range of mental health and relationship issues. I have a passion for helping people find peace of mind and strength to work on the challenges that they are facing.

Hi! My name is Jenna and I am a licensed professional clinical counselor [LPCC] in the state of Ohio with 5 years of professional working experience (6 if inclusive to clinical internship). I have had successful involvement in assisting people to overcome and cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders; relationship needs, communication skills, and family or group conflict and challenges; general life adjustments; and in addressing the day-to-day "life-isms" that can sometimes impact us from being our best, most esteemed and comfortable selves. The majority of my experience has been with youth, young adults, and couples or families from high-risk populations, whether that be those struggling with or impacted by substance use, legal involvement, family disruption and separation, multiple traumas, and otherwise. I tend to utilize an eclectic approach predominantly rooted in DBT, ACT, and CBT therapies while also strongly holding space to validate the life experiences that made an undoubtable impact on you along the way. I truly believe that you are the expert of your own life-- no one will know you or know how to heal you better than you-- but I would be honored to walk next to you in support along the way. I frequently incorporate radical acceptance, authenticity and identity development; genuine connection; autonomy; and education into my practice. I believe that the first key to change is awareness... you have to know what it is in order to change it, and we have to GROW through what we GO through! I tend to take a more casual, conversational approach-- offering a blend of professionally trained and skilled mental health therapy with empathy, humor, and some degree of 'nerding out' to improve insight and help strengthen stability in sense of self.
