About Jennifer Richmond
Her background spans outpatient therapy, crisis counseling, healthcare leadership, and program design for behavioral health services. That experience has informed a practice that balances practical tools with opportunities for reflection, so individuals can build clearer coping strategies, strengthen relationships, and tend to their emotional needs. She also draws on extensive training in working with children and families, which informs how early attachment and family dynamics continue to influence adults in the present.
Jennifer integrates evidence-based therapeutic practices alongside somatic awareness and attention to the mind-body connection, recognizing that healing can involve both thoughts and bodily experience. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each person - whether someone needs concrete skills for managing overwhelm or a reflective space to process painful experiences. She offers support for caregiver stress, domestic violence recovery, hospice and end-of-life counseling, isolation and loneliness, life purpose and midlife transitions, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-harm concerns, self-love work, and women’s issues.
Jennifer works in English and seeks to create a respectful, compassionate environment where people can explore change at a manageable pace and leave sessions feeling more grounded and hopeful.
