Hi, I’m Jennifer, a licensed clinical social worker with seven years of experience. I’ve spent most of my career in community mental health, where I’ve gained broad, diverse clinical experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work and a Bachelor’s degree in Communication. Because communication is such a vital part of effective therapy, my background in communication strongly enhances my clinical practice and the work I do with clients.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of New York, Colorado, and New Jersey, I've had the opportunity to work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families in various settings. While providing behavioral health supports, I've had the ability to partner through the process of healing wounds that serve as an impediment to wellness.

​

Within my practice, I utilize Brainspotting, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma focused, play therapy, and solution focused therapy to aid in reaching a state of homeostasis.

I have been in practice since 2013 and worked with people from all walks of life. I am sensitive to context, goal oriented and will work with you to find a solution that works for you.

Most guys don't end up in therapy because things fell apart. They end up here because they've been handling everything — work, relationships, expectations, pressure — and at some point something feels off, even when it looks fine from the outside. That's when you need something different: a stronger sense of your own values and direction.

I'm Joe Nord, the founder of Nord Therapy. Before becoming a therapist, I was a Division I athlete for five years and then a Division I wrestling coach for 13 years, including time at Columbia University. I've spent my career around men who hold themselves to a high standard — driven, high-achieving, often in finance, law, medicine, or building something of their own. I understand that world from the inside, not just from a textbook.

I draw on REBT, CBT, ACT, existential philosophy, and Stoic and Buddhist thought to help clients examine the beliefs and expectations that are quietly running the show. I'm direct, practical, and focused on creating real, meaningful change — not just talking about it.

I’ve been working with women, children and families for over 15 years in individual counseling, group settings, and program development. My expertise lies in helping people understand their own emotional experience, to use words not violence, to cope, to reduce impulsive and compulsive behavior, to advocate for themselves.

I believe to live fully, we must feel. Intensely. Viscerally. Freely. To feel pride and pain, joy and frustration. To taste the freedoms of life, as well as its restraints. To reconcile thoughts, actions and emotions that are often at odds. To square all of this with culture, beliefs, and history. To live fully is when a sense of equity, equality and balance is awakened. To live fully is to gain perspective and know that you can weather all of it, and not be overcome by these complexities, but learn to integrate them, for a full life.

I hold as fundamental that every person deserves to feel genuinely met. My approach to psychotherapy is rooted in presence: the belief that healing unfolds in the quality of the space between therapist and client.

I practice with a deep attunement to the body, drawing on somatic awareness to help clients reconnect with the wisdom held in their nervous systems, and their narratives.

Alongside this, I bring a profound commitment to deep listening, not simply hearing words, but attending to the subtle rhythms of affect, silence, and sensation that often carry what language cannot.

I approach each person with the conviction that being truly seen and accepted is itself transformative; I strive to meet each client with warmth, curiosity, and an unwavering sense of their inherent worth.

I also hold cultural context as an essential lens, recognizing that our histories, identities, and communities shape how we experience ourselves, our pain, and what healing can look like. Whether working across language, culture, or lived experience, I create a therapeutic relationship that feels genuinely safe, attuned, and affirming of the whole person.
