Jen has worked in a variety of settings and with numerous issues in the counseling field for over 12 years, but her heart and passion has always been serving women and the unique issues they face.
She believes that women are the healers of the world – and also most likely to put themselves last – so she has dedicated her practice to serving the kick-ass, ambitious and pretty overwhelmed women of Denver who are trying to do it all with a smile on their face :).
More importantly, her personal life experiences have made her uniquely qualified to guide women on an path to personal healing. Having grown up all around the world, including overseas in Germany, Jen understands transitions, anxiety, overwhelm and how culture and family influence us all in profound ways. Through the ups and downs of her life, she’s learned the incredible importance of grounding ourselves deeply into self-care practices that help us to become our best selves.
