I am a licensed clinical social worker in California and Massachusetts, with over ten years of experience treating college students and adults with eating disorders. I also have experience treating a variety of personal and professional issues including anxiety, disordered eating, body image issues, struggles in communicating/assertiveness, adjustment issues, perfectionism, life stress, and relationship stress.
Starting therapy can be an exciting and daunting process. Working with a therapist allows you to have an unbiased third party listen to your story, validate your feelings and emotions and help foster and provide insight and support. Therapy can help you learn new strategies and techniques to help you better tolerate distress and view thoughts, feelings and situations differently.
I can bill to many preferred provider (PPO) plans with out-of-network benefits. I can also provide you with a super bill each month for you to submit to insurance for the possibility of partial or full reimbursement. I encourage all clients to contact their insurance provider directly to inquire about coverage.

Jenna is a thoughtful and compassionate therapist and she will challenge you. I am a young woman who has struggled with toxic romantic relationships in the past (I know I'm not the only one!). Jenna helped me identify unhealthy patterns in my relationships and encouraged me to ask for what I need from others.
Jenna will definitely tell it like it is and isn't one to sugar coat the tough stuff, but she does it in a caring way that leaves you feeling stronger and more empowered to take control of your life.

I have been searching for a great therapist ever since I moved to LA and finally found one! Jenna asks the tough, brutally honest questions you need to hear (and ask yourself) to ensue change. Many times I feel that therapists either don't comment enough, or comment too much. Jenna is the perfect balance of both, and I've really gotten a handle on my current situation / issues since speaking with her.
I enjoy her fresh, young perspective, and always feels a weight lifted off my shoulders at the end of our sessions. She makes you feel comfortable in a judgement free zone. I highly recommend her
