Jennifer Saul

Jennifer Saul

Psychiatrist

Virtual & in-person • 2.4 mi away • Kenosha, WI


Clients working with Jenna Saul, MD can expect a clinician who sees the whole person in context. From her psychiatry career, she knows "nature vs. nurture" is one continuum—life events shape us from community to DNA. She focuses on strengths after adversity, helping clients act authentically, true to who they are, not emotions. Avoiding "resilience" (events change us permanently), she sees us as malleable: a chink in armor becomes strength. Dr. Saul tunes into language's power to free or trap us.

Dr. Amanda Simms

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


I’m Amanda, and I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a place where they can show up exactly as they are. I bring warmth, authenticity, and even a bit of humor into the room when it feels right. I want you to feel genuinely seen—not judged—and supported in whatever you’re working through.

I’ve been in the counseling field for over 15 years and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from the University of Tennessee. My experience ranges from private practice and telehealth to correctional mental health, hospitals, and leadership roles in community programs. A. Simms Resume copy

I work with adults experiencing mood challenges, anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ experiences, as well as individuals who are justice-involved or adjusting to major life changes. My approach integrates CBT, ACT, and Reality Therapy, giving us room to explore both deeper patterns and practical skills.

Clients describe me as encouraging, steady, and real—someone who helps them feel grounded and capable while taking meaningful steps toward a more balanced and authentic life.
