A Little Bit About Jenielle...

I have experience working with children, teens, and adults with behavioral and mental health challenges. I have a passion for working with students in special education and utilizing creative strategies for engagement. I am passionate about helping others establish peace and find serenity in the fast-paced society we live in.

WHY DID YOU BECOME A THERAPIST?

My experiences as a foster child and adoptee inspired me to pursue the social work profession. I sought out career opportunities working in group homes, outreach, school systems, and outpatient services to determine where my skills would best thrive. Becoming a therapist has allowed me the ability to use my passion in a creative, personalized fashion that empowers others to make change.
