It takes a tremendous amount of courage to reach out to a therapist for help with life's difficult challenges, and to find hope in the midst of struggle. It is my joy as a therapist, and as a human being, to help individuals find that hope within themselves. I have many years of experience helping individuals of all ages with anxiety, depression, relationship and communication issues, anger management, PTSD, childhood trauma, ADHD, substance use and grief and loss. I especially enjoy working with young people trying to navigate these challenges. I also work with couples and older adults. Grief and loss is an area of expertise.

If you’re feeling stuck in anxiety, depression, trauma, school stress, or family conflict, therapy can be a place to feel understood and start making meaningful change. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I support clients in building coping skills, improving confidence, and finding practical ways to manage everyday challenges.

Jennifer Downie

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 15 mi away • Buffalo, NY


I came to therapy from teaching, and that background shapes how I show up: I'm used to adapting to who's in front of me, reading what's unsaid, and finding an approach that actually fits the person — not just the presenting concern.

I work with adolescents and adults on trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, maternal mental health, grief, and family stress. EMDR is a core part of my practice — particularly for clients whose past experiences still affect how they feel and function today, even when they'd rather they didn't.

I keep a small, intentional caseload. If you'd like to see if we're a good fit, I offer a free phone consultation before we commit to anything.
