Hi! I'm Jenine, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I have over 30 years of experience in Mental Health and have worked in a variety of clinical settings. For the past 15 years I have been in private practice. I currently provide therapy for individuals 18+.
Hello and welcome! Do you feel stuck - maybe in a difficult relationship with someone important or in a complicated relationship with yourself? My aim is to help you begin healing as quickly as possible, even when the issues are long-standing. Together, we will explore the present and seek out transformational processes, rather than focus on the past or simply relive old wounds as a more traditional approach might.
I work with individuals and people in relationships navigating grief, trauma, anxiety, shame, anger, relationship distress, parenting, adoption, identity, and life transitions. Together, we'll slow down enough to notice what has been difficult to see, better understand what's happening beneath the surface, and explore new ways of relating to yourself and others.

Hello, I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the state of Illinois, Florida, Massachusetts, and Nevada (LICSW/LCSW). I have a Masters Degree in Social Work with a concentration in Independent Clinical Practice and Health Care Specialization. I am a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I have experience working with individuals experiencing symptoms related to anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, life transitions, LGBTQ+ related issues, imposter syndrome, low self-esteem, perfectionism, grief, loneliness, ADHD, OCD, trauma, and substance abuse. I am compassionate, empathetic, and have a strong desire to help other people. I am dedicated to provide quality mental health treatment for all people. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to talk about your concerns and what you are struggling with. LGBTQ+ community is welcomed.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Beginning or continuing therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, validated, and genuinely understood.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Registered Art Therapist (ATR) with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, and other life stressors. I have a particular interest in supporting LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients. I am also a mother with extensive clinical experience working with children, teens, and their families.
My therapeutic method is tailored to fit your temperament and individual experience. You may be facing a combination of personal, social, and institutional adversity. Discomfort may be unavoidable, but you are not alone; I can help you transform hardship or tragedy into resilience. My process is effective; it evolves as you do. If you experience negative feelings like inadequacy, grief, or shame, I can help you understand the origin of the discomfort and make changes toward ease. Sometimes, worry can be helpful; other times, anxiety and depression lie to us. Having worked in both economically-strained and prosperous communities, I have seen the impact of trauma and neglect on various people. I also understand being a white male can insulate me against the prejudice and discrimination commonly experienced by people of color, women, and the LGBTQ community; I trust my client’s experiences and take responsibility for my blind spots.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in trauma-informed care. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your experiences, gain insight into patterns that may be holding you back, and develop the tools needed to heal, grow, and move forward with confidence.

Find the right couples therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Arlington
Searching for couples therapists in Arlington starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. As you compare Arlington couples therapy options, look for a therapist with specific couples training. Licensed marriage and family therapists, as well as therapists trained in approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy, may be a strong fit for relationship-focused care.
In a smaller market like Arlington, finding one therapist who works for both partners can take added coordination. Virtual couples therapy can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still giving you access to Arlington therapists who fit your schedule and preferences. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether the session format works for both partners. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they structure couples sessions, which relationship concerns they focus on, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation to assess fit.
Counseling in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who offer couples therapy, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready. You can browse profiles, check availability, and look for a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new clients.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
