About

Hello, my name is Jennifer Cole, and I am a licensed Psychologist. I am passionate about supporting all of my clients through various challenges and or traumatic experiences and helping them experience healing. My specialty is Anxiety and Coping Skills. My approach My approach is a mixture of client-centered and cognitive-behavioral treatment. I will meet you with empathy, open-mindedness, and unconditional positive regard. I believe in working collaboratively towards agreed-upon goals and assisting my clients to identify treatment priorities, treatment plans, and accomplish goals. My focus Typically, I meet with clients who have experienced various challenges and difficult life experiences. Symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, etc.. and mental health challenges are common for which I'm passionate to assist with the process of change. My communication style I'm a firm believer that a safe, comfortable, adaptable environment makes a difference for my clientele. My clients communicate feeling accepted for "who" they are, and experience having been "met" with where they are in life when they begin therapy with me. My journey to mental healthcare My interest in becoming a clinician was initially inspired after realizing I honestly wanted to help people and at the same time, I was enrolled in my first psychology class learning about "how change happens." This was decades ago!! It clicked for me back then in my earlier years of college, of what I wanted to do as a career in being of service to others. I believe being of service to others is one of the most important values I poses and allows me to give back to people all over the world. "Change" happens in various ways and methods, and it is something different for all of us. I believe "change" is possible for all of us, at any time, regardless of life's challenges and adversities. I believe that mental health is one of the keys to change. I don't believe in perfection.
