Hi - I'm Ms Jen! I'm so excited to have another year supporting the students and families of Creighton Middle School.

Originally from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from The Ohio State University (Go Bucks!). I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 25 years working with children, teens and their families in a therapy setting.

I have specialized training related to trauma and practice several evidenced-based trauma therapies such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to help young people process and heal from traumatic experiences.

I am an Inclusive Care Provider with Jefferson Center and have specialized training and experience with the LGBTQ+ population.

As a Jefferson Center School Based Therapist at Creighton Middle School, I provide individual therapy to students who are in need of support related to depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, gender identity, sexual orientation, drug and alcohol use, complicated personal and family relationships, suicidal thoughts, self harm, difficult behavior, anger issues, and many other challenges middle schoolers may face.
