I have over 10 years of experience in a wide variety of clinical settings since obtaining my Master's degree and becoming a licensed clinician. I use a client centered approach that draws from my training in cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, dialectical behavioral therapy, exposure and response prevention, and a trauma-informed approach. I have worked with people struggling with addictions, a wide variety of anxiety related difficulties, ADHD, depression, and some bodily focused repetitive behaviors. I also have experience working with couples to address relationship needs.

Jennifer Tennyson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Harrisonburg, VA


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work and experience across a variety of settings, including hospitals, assisted living and nursing facilities, public health, primary care offices, and private practice. This diverse background has allowed me to support individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions.

I work with adults ages 18 and older, with a special focus on college-aged students, individuals experiencing relationship challenges, those recovering from narcissistic relationships, and the aging population. I help clients build skills in stress management, improve self-esteem, process grief, and navigate complex emotional experiences.

I was drawn to this field by a strong desire to support individuals during difficult times and to help them find clarity, resilience, and meaningful change. My goal is to walk alongside each client as they work toward healing and a more fulfilling life.
