I am very knowledgeable about OCD and its tactics, including how it loves to change themes. I'll help you understand more about this tricky, sneaky disorder. My sessions are challenging and rewarding. I'll always meet you where you are and talk through any concerns you have. ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) is a freeing lifestyle that takes time and practice. Doing hard things is the best way to learn how to work through them. I will be with you every step of the way. My other focus areas include depression, ADHD, and anxiety disorders.

Why our members love working with Jenna
A.S.
I have struggled with ocd specifically ROCD for 4 years before meeting Jenna and was seeing another therpist for 2 years before that, i thought my ocd was true and there was nothing i could do about it until i made an appt with Jenna. she is TRULY amazing! i cant thank her enough! she has changed my life. She is comforting to talk to, she listens and actually understands you. She never makes me feel alone. She is truthful and makes me feel safe talking about anything. She is personalable and super kind. i cant put into words how amazing and helpful she really is, she always tells me how great im doing, but its thanks to her!!!! ive only been in therapy for a couple months and i wouldnt be doing so well without her and what she has helped me with. I never thought i could actually be happy, but i am!

Review for Jenna: A True Gift in Therapy I cannot express enough how transformative my experience with Jenna has been. At 48 years old, I have battled OCD since I was eight, and there were times when it felt impossible to leave my house. Over the years, I’ve tried various therapists who claimed to specialize in OCD, but none have connected with me like Jenna has. What sets Jenna apart is her genuine ability to listen. In our sessions, I feel heard and understood, not just another patient filling out forms. She engages with my thoughts and feelings, strategizing alongside me and tailoring her approach to my unique experiences. It’s evident that she is not just going through the motions; she truly cares about my well-being. Jenna is not only incredibly intelligent, but she also possesses a warmth and empathy that make her an amazing person. Her insights and support have been invaluable in my journey toward managing my OCD. I feel fortunate to have found someone who genuinely understands me and my struggles. If you’re looking for a therapist who will truly invest in your healing process, I wholeheartedly recommend Jenna. You are in good hands with her, and I am confident that she can help you as she has helped me. Thank you, Jenna, for everything! 💕💕💕

Jenna is a miracle worker. I’m not gonna say I’ve been cured because that doesn’t happen with OCD. But I’m happy. Can you believe it?? A person with ROCD, in a relationship, who is happy? Hard to come by. It’s possible. And I have Jenna (and myself) to thank. RPM’s all the way! In fact, I made such progress, I was able to muster up the courage to interview my very own girlfriend about what it’s like to date a person with my disorder. Scary stuff! But we did it, and hopefully the wisdom we’ve both gained through the years together will also help you! Hiccuping Mind: Ep. 4 — https://youtu.be/j4QHmXhevdI?si=D8dSZbM8oSTNxskp

Jenna is just great! She understands me perfectly and can relate to any of my experiences with wisdom and knowledge. She clearly cares deeply for her patients. I look forward to working further with her and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs ERP.

So this therapy Is unlike anything i've ever done. The exposures and rpms are helping me in all areas of my life. I need to figure out how to apply these exposures and messages to thoughts that occur on a daily basis tho. I still have a lot to learn but really value the process so far and my provider's patience and non- pushiness with me.

Jenna is flexible, compassionate, and understanding to my needs. Some days we get a lot of ERP accomplished and other times less. She knows how to help her patients.

It took me 2 years to finally book therapy sessions with NOCD and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. Jenna is the kindest, most helpful therapist you can ever find. She truly helped me made great progress! There are still some bad days during which I would give in to my compulsions, but I can see myself going down the right path!
S.S.
Jenna was so sweet and extremely patient with me. Heard me out no matter how much I rambled. Looking forward to beat this once and for all.
