Born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, Jen holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Birmingham-Southern College and a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Counseling from the University of Montevallo. She is a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and is currently under supervision with Dr. James L. Jackson as an Associate Licensed Counselor (ALC) in the state of Alabama.  

Jen is an avid reader, life long learner, and an intuitive creator. She practices yoga, pilates, and enjoys walking and weight training. She enjoys playing tennis, traveling, sewing, designing, and spending time with her family. 

Jen is drawn to the humanistic and person-centered therapeutic approaches and strives to support her clients as they become creative, self-actualized individuals while in the safety of the therapeutic relationship. It is a sacred experience to listen with an open mind and an empathetic heart as clients embody vulnerability and courage while pursuing their fullest potential. When words may seem inadequate or too difficult to be spoken, Jen provides clients with creative interventions like expressive arts therapy, sand tray therapy, and other play therapy modalities to help assist and enhance the therapeutic experience. She also takes a holistic approach to counseling by focusing on alignment of the mind, body, and spirit.
