Your partner in this life journey
Hello Lovely!
Thank you for taking time out of your day to visit my page.
My government name is Jenavese, however, those who are familiar with me, call me Jena. As we become familiar, feel free to call me Jena. I have a zest for life and am passionate about others living their truth. It is sometimes easier said than done to “be positive” as it may be hard to will ourselves into better days. In that case, I am here to walk along side you to listen and provide you with the tools to see the greatness in yourself. I have been in private practice since 2020 but working in the mental health field since 2010 in many capacities.
I love travel and adventure; even if being a tourist in my own area. I have a chihuahua mix who is lively although she’s labeled a senior (we do not subscribe to labels over here). I adore my family and enjoy gathering with them as much as I can. I have chronic illness so health and wellness is a huge passion of mine. I have a diploma in Women’s Nutrition from Huntington’s School of Health and Sciences.
My primarily virtual practice centers around awareness on how food impacts bio-psycho-social health, young adults in transition, and those with chronic illness. I believe in the mind, body, spirit connection to mental wellness.
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Existential Therapy, Relational Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), art in therapy, and Walk & Talk Therapy at nearby Fredericksburg area parks.
My person centered approach puts you in the driver seat of your therapeutic care. Our therapeutic relationship is built on trust, honest communication, and empathy to reach solution focused outcomes.
