Jenna Green

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Hi, I’m Jenna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor offering an affirming, judgment-free space for adults who want to understand themselves a little better and build a life that actually feels like their own.


I specialize in trauma and grief, helping people make sense of experiences that have changed them, navigate loss in all its forms, and find a way forward without feeling like they have to erase or “get over” what happened.

I especially enjoy working with LGBTQ+ clients, creatives, healthcare professionals, and people navigating anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, self-worth, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in supporting healthcare professionals who carry the emotional weight of caring for others, process difficult or traumatic experiences, cope with loss, or try to reconnect with themselves after burnout.

Welcome! If insight alone could cure anxiety or depression, you would already be healed. Analyzing the problem hasn't stopped the loops of "what if" thinking or the exhaustion of holding it all together. I offer specialized, individualized, and deeply effective telehealth treatment for anxiety, depression, and related life challenges. In our relaxed, warm, and casual sessions, you will learn practical "anxiety hacks" for immediate relief while we work together on long-term behavioral change. Backed by over two decades of clinical experience, my goal is for you to leave every session feeling heard, supported, and genuinely closer to reaching your goals.

Above all, I want my clients to know that my priority is to create a space where they feel safe being fully and authentically themselves. As a gay man, I understand the importance of having spaces where identity does not need to be explained, defended, or minimized, and I hope to create that sense of safety for each of my clients. I welcome LGBTQ+ adults and young adults, and I offer affirming therapy where who you are is the starting point, not something you have to justify.

Professionally, I am a Miami-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering telehealth therapy to clients across Florida. I completed my Bachelor of Social Work in Indianapolis and my Master of Social Work in Miami. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with people navigating some of life's most difficult moments.

My experience includes providing therapeutic services within a homeless shelter's substance use treatment program, as well as working in an inpatient hospital setting. I have supported individuals through addiction and substance use recovery, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, medical crises, and major life transitions. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), harm reduction, solution-focused brief therapy, and positive psychology, and I tailor my approach to what actually fits your life and goals. I am no stranger to difficult conversations, and I want my clients to know that no thought or feeling is unwelcome in our therapeutic space.

Every individual, regardless of background, identity, or lived experience, is welcome in my practice. Whether you are working through recovery, grieving a loss, managing anxiety or depression, or facing a major life change, I would be glad to support you.

I look forward to meeting you!

Sometimes your mind understands what’s happened, but your body still holds the impact. I’m trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, approaches that help gently process those deeper layers. My work integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to support nervous system regulation, so change doesn’t just feel intellectual, it feels real, grounded, and lasting.
