I’m a fully licensed CPC clinician who works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, and addiction. Growing up in Europe sparked my curiosity about people and my passion for helping others move toward healing and personal growth.
I take a compassionate, collaborative approach and tailor therapy to each person’s unique experiences. Using evidence-based practices like CBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing, I help clients build practical tools to manage emotions, strengthen relationships, and create lasting change.
Therapy can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, couples, and family systems. I serve individuals and families seeking practical tools and compassionate support to navigate mental, emotional, and behavioral health challenges.
Pleasure to meet you! As an LCSW and CBT psychotherapist specializing in substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. My clinical training at Simmons University emphasized psychology-focused clinical social work with additional focus in addiction treatment. I work with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, addiction, and unhealthy patterns that can leave people feeling stuck or disconnected from the life they want to build. My goal is to help clients create meaningful, lasting change, not just temporary relief.
I am Jennifer Ferguson. I knew I wanted to be a therapist when I was 13. After college, I was a teacher on and off-interspersed with staying home with children. While completing my counseling degree from Capella University, I was still able to stay at home with my children. I have worked at a drug rehab center for women, a small private school as their mental health therapist, at a mental health hospital outpatient program, and in private practice, virtually and in-person.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Henderson, NV
Finding addiction therapists in Henderson starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use patterns, cravings, triggers, and behavioral concerns. Some therapists focus on approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or relapse prevention planning. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, so it can help to read each therapist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.
Henderson has a range of local therapy options, with additional access across the Las Vegas Valley through virtual appointments. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions around work, school, caregiving, or transportation needs. Recovery often changes over time, so look for a therapist who describes a nonjudgmental approach and experience with substance use, trauma and addiction, alcohol use, drug use, or behavioral addiction. Provider bios can also show how sessions are structured, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and whether the therapist is accepting new patients.
Addiction counseling in Henderson can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, lets you check insurance coverage for your plan and location, and offers upfront cost estimates before you book. You can compare bios, filter by availability and appointment format, and book directly when you’re ready.
