About Jennifer Wood

I am a licensed professional counselor who enjoys working with individuals, couples, and families. I consider it an honor and a privilege to walk alongside you in your mental health journey. I believe we all have an inner self that longs to be heard. I will meet you where you are and work collaboratively with you to meet your goals. 

I have been on the “couch side” of therapy and continue to do so for my own personal growth. I am aware of the courage it takes to step into the therapy room and begin the work of self-improvement. I am committed to walking alongside you on your own personal journey, however that may look. With 26 years in the nursing field, I bring experience that helps me to relate, understand, and desire to help people. 

My primary areas of focus are pre-marital and marital counseling and working with adults looking to work toward healing from traumatic experiences, relationship conflict, self-esteem issues, depression, codependency, life transitions, grief and loss, and spiritual concerns. My desire is for you to experience peace and growth.
