Life can shift unexpectedly-and when it does, the stress, trauma, or emotional pain can leave you feeling lost,
isolated, or overwhelmed. Whether you're healing from abuse, facing a major transition, navigating
relationship stress, or coping with anxiety or depression, therapy can offer a path toward clarity, peace, and
renewal. You're not alone.
My name is Jena Bennett and I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for 13 years. I specialize in trauma and grief counseling. Currently, I work with individuals and married couples. I believe when people find help and healing there is a ripple effect of healing in our culture.
I love being a counselor because it is so rewarding to help people through difficult times, both past and present. Helping people work through issues of sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, forgiveness, relationships, and anger is my passion. I have about 15 years of experience working with adults and couples.
I have a Ph.D in Counseling. I've been a therapist since 1984 and I listen very well. I help clients with anxiety, depression and relationship issues and more.
I am dual licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor. I have extensive experience working in private practice and residential treatment for addiction and severe mental health. In addition to my MA for counseling I also have a Master of Theology and enjoy working with individuals navigating their spirituality.

Our current and past life circumstances can often leave us with feelings of stress, anxiety, and sadness. These emotions can be confusing and difficult to manage and process. My goal is to come alongside clients to reach personal goals, using warmth, understanding, and acceptance. I will work with you, with you in the driver’s seat, to set goals, explore and gain understanding of yourself, process your emotions in a safe space, reframe negative beliefs about yourself, and find solutions that work for you. I enjoy working with clients with a variety of concerns including general anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues.
