Jennifer Whitfield, M.S.

Hello and welcome! I am so glad you are here. I know that deciding to enter therapy is a big deal and an extremely personal choice. I realize it may not be an easy choice, but by being here, that means you are making a decision to invest in yourself, dig deep, and to make some changes. I offer in person and telehealth counseling services specializing in Perinatal/Postpartum and Maternal Mental Health, Parenting Support, Infant Mental Health, Play Therapy, and Family Therapy with children and adolescents. I am an experienced clinician with 12 years in the mental health field. Some of my work has been in areas of depression, anxiety, PMAD's, adjustment through pregnancy and postpartum periods, postpartum planning, parenting support, family therapy, life transitions, stress management, attachment issues, grief and loss, pregnancy loss, trauma, birth trauma, infertility, child and adolescent behavioral concerns, and relationship challenges. In my office, I provide a welcoming, open and safe space for your self-discovery and growth. You will be met with compassion, warmth, and support, while helping to keep you accountable and focused on your growth and goals. I will empower and encourage you to take responsibility for your healing. I believe we all have the strength of healing ourselves. Sometimes, however, that ability feels lost and we need someone to help us find it. Whether you are a new parent needing support navigating this new season or a parent wanting help with your childs behavior; whether you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or recently postpartum; whether you are a first time parent or a seasoned parent; whether you are having difficulty conceiving or have experienced loss or repeated losses; I am here to support you. These are some of THE biggest transitions you will go through. Both physically and emotionally. It is a huge identity shift. There is a new you. While your experience is uniquely yours, and while sometimes it can feel like nothing can help; we are not meant to do this alone. You are NOT alone. You ARE worthy and it is OK to ask for help! Give me a call today for a free consultation. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
