As a licensed mental health and addiction therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges, I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, stress, relationship dynamics, recovery from trauma, and personal growth. My approach centers on understanding each person's unique journey, with a deep commitment to addressing issues such as social anxiety, generalized anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and recovery from addiction.
My name is Jennifer Leighton, LCSW. As a clinician, I have worked in a variety of settings including, psychiatric, outpatient mental health that provided individual, family, couples, and group counseling. I have extentive amount of experience working with individuals and families facing unique challenges of substance abuse and DCPP involvement.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of nursing experience across behavioral health, trauma, critical care, geriatrics, and nursing leadership. Throughout my career, I have seen how deeply mental health affects every part of a person’s life, their relationships, work, sleep, confidence, physical health, and ability to feel like themselves.
I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for clients navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, mood changes, insomnia, stress, burnout, and life transitions.
My style is warm, empowering, holistic, and solution-oriented. I believe healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported without judgment. My goal is to help clients feel less stuck, reconnect with themselves, and move toward feeling whole again. Together, we will look beyond symptoms and explore the life experiences, stressors, sleep patterns, medical concerns, relationships, and personal goals that may be affecting your mental health.
I want clients to leave care feeling informed, hopeful, and equipped with a plan that helps them optimize what matters most and build a life they can truly enjoy.
