Jenny’s approach is collaborative, integrative, and grounded in a belief that each of us possess our own internal wisdom and innate capacity to heal. She began her career in psycho-oncology, supporting clients and their loved ones in exploring the relational impact and psychic suffering that accompanies illness, grief and bereavement.

Jenny’s therapeutic vision draws from training in cognitive behavior therapy, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, sensorimotor psychotherapy, EMDR, neurodiverse couples therapy, and internal family systems work. She brings a holistic perspective to identifying and transforming the conflicts of mind-body-spirit that impede our fullest expression of self and ability to build meaningful connection. Your relationship with her offers a secure, nurturing, and non-shaming space to explore and rework maladaptive patterns and behaviors while operationalizing your inherent strengths. 

Couples therapy and neurodiverse couples therapy have many similarities, but neurodiverse couples therapy focuses on helping each partner identify their unique relational strengths and liabilities in a non-blaming way, providing psychoeducation around the role that their neurodiversity plays in a couple’s interactions, incorporates skill-building to support better perspective-taking, communication and navigation/tolerance of conflict, and attempts to support partners in seeing themselves as a team working to overcome the neurodiversity, rather than against each other. 

Jenny completed her MSW at Columbia University, as well as a post-graduate certification in Palliative and End-of-Life Care from Smith College. She offers psychotherapeutic services to individuals, couples and families, and has a special interest in working with those diagnosed with ASD/Asperger Syndrome in adulthood.
