Great to meet you!

My name is Jennifer Berger and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I graduated in 2015 from the University of Southern California School of Social Work. My passion is to walk along side you in your journey towards health and wellbeing. My mission is to offer a safe, client-centered, and supportive environment to promote healing to individuals, couples and families.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use an eclectic and person-centered approach to my practice. I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Person-in-Environment (PIE), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), family systems, interpersonal and solution-focused therapy along with Rogerian positive regard into my practice.

What you can expect from our first session

At the beginning stage of therapy, my primary goal is to establish a therapeutic rapport while providing an emotionally safe environment. We will work in a collaborative way in order to identify goals for therapy and check in periodically to make sure we are on track.
