Jennifer Hobbs

Jennifer Hobbs

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.6 mi away • Durham, NC


I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families, and more than 20 years of experience supporting youth and families across home, school, and community settings.

I work with individuals and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioral concerns, trauma, school-related stress, life transitions, family conflict, and concerns related to safety and emotional well-being.

My approach to counseling is practical, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I believe meaningful change happens when individuals and families feel supported while also developing tools, insight, and healthy patterns that promote long-term growth.

When working with children and teens, I value partnering with parents and caregivers as an important part of the process, and not to be pushed aside during the treatment process of any minor.

Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, my goal is to provide a thoughtful, supportive space where meaningful progress can take place.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Durham

Finding the right ADHD provider in Durham starts with understanding the type of care you need. Therapists who specialize in ADHD can help with building coping strategies, improving focus, and managing day-to-day challenges through approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Psychiatrists can evaluate symptoms, provide a diagnosis, and manage medication if that's part of your care plan. Some people benefit from working with both.

Durham is home to a wide range of mental health providers, from those near Duke University and downtown to practices across the Research Triangle. When choosing a provider, consider whether they have experience with ADHD in your age group — care for adults often looks different from care for children or teens. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and help you decide if they're a good match before booking.

ADHD therapy in Durham can be expensive without insurance coverage. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit — making it easier to find an ADHD specialist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
