I offers a warm, non-judgmental therapeutic experience grounded in genuine connection and collaboration. I work with adolescents and adults, and I am especially passionate about supporting you in deepening self-understanding, fostering harmony within yourself and in your relationships, and building a life that reflects your values and sense of purpose. I bring experience from many years of working in multiple levels of dual-diagnosis care. I have been a registered yoga teacher for 10 years, and enjoy incorporating mind–body practices into therapeutic work.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and founder of Roots Healing Alliance, where I help individuals and couples do deeper, meaningful healing work. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and relationship patterns, using a mix of insight-based and body-centered approaches. My style is warm, direct, and real. You won’t get a “therapist mask,” but someone who’s genuinely in it with you. I’ll support you while also gently challenging you to grow. My goal is to help you better understand yourself and create lasting, authentic change.
If you are seeking an alternative to traditional psychiatric care — especially after feeling broken, unheard, or powerless — I want you to know that change is possible. Life can feel like turbulent waves, and surface-level symptom reduction is rarely enough. Together, with or without medication, we will explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, helping you replace external control with inner direction and discover the calm beneath the waves. My goal is to guide and empower you until I am no longer needed.

I have a BS degree in Health Science from San Jose State University and an MSW degree from the University of Southern California. Yes, I’m originally from California. I’m a licensed clinical social worker in both California and Florida. I was first licensed in 2003. For the first ten years of my practice, I worked with children, adolescents, and families.
I have over eight years of experience supporting individuals whose mental health is affected by health and medical issues. Finally, I’m trained in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).
My core belief is simple: I believe in you and your ability to become the healthiest, most fulfilled version of yourself. Life often makes it hard to see that potential, let alone know how to get there. My role is to be your guide and ally on that journey.
My path to becoming a clinician has been intentional. Beyond my master's degree in counseling and advanced post-master's training, my work in non-profit and community mental health has given me a breadth of experience with people from all walks of life. This doesn't mean "I've seen it all," but it does mean that I'm prepared to meet you where you are, without judgment. No matter what you're going through, if you are ready to take a step, so am I.
Look, nothing gets better if we don't find a way to face it safely. That's why therapy takes courage. It took courage just to get this far, and you already deserve credit for that. When you're ready for that first, brave step of reaching out, I'll be here, ready to loan you some of my hope until you can hold it for yourself.
I believe everyone deserves a safe place to feel heard, supported, and understood. I earned my Master's degree in Counseling from Webster University and tailor therapy to each person's unique needs and goals. My hope is that you'll feel comfortable, encouraged, and empowered as we work together toward healing and lasting change.
Hi, I’m Jenn, a licensed mental health counselor with more than four years of experience working with individuals and groups.

I try to integrate a warm and approachable style using authenticity, humor, and empathy.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tampa
Searching for therapists in Tampa starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want to focus on. Many therapists support people with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or work stress, but their approaches can vary. As you compare options, look for specialties and therapy styles listed in each profile, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care. These details can help you choose a therapist whose experience fits your needs.
Tampa has a broad mental health care market, with therapists across areas like Hyde Park, Downtown, South Tampa, and nearby communities. Your choice may depend on whether you prefer an in-person office that fits your commute or a virtual appointment that works better with your schedule. It also helps to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, and how they describe their session style. Reading therapist bios before booking can show how they communicate, what they focus on, and what you may expect in a first session.
Therapy in Tampa can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for Tampa therapists who are accepting new patients, compare profiles, enter your insurance details, and see estimated costs before you book. From there, you can review available times and book directly when you’re ready.
