I strive to provide a place of safety and security for those seeking emotional and mental wellness by building meaningful relationships with my clients. I enjoy working with trauma survivors while they find a new way of living with their past. I like to look at a person from a system perspective. What system (family or otherwise) did you grow up with? What does that look like now? What changes can you make in your system to create healthier boundaries and more meaningful relationships?

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.
