Meet Jennifer Walker

With over a decade of experience as a counselor and 30 years working in various mental health settings, I specialize in supporting adults dealing with ADHD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use. My own life experiences and challenges have shaped my work as a therapist, and I bring empathy and understanding into each session. My approach centers on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we work together to explore your goals, honoring your individual journey and finding strategies that feel right for you.

My Philosophy

I believe therapy is most effective when it’s a true collaboration, where we work together to find solutions that fit you, not a one-size-fits-all approach. I value honesty, humor, and mutual respect in our sessions—because healing doesn’t have to be all serious business. I’m here to listen, to guide, and to offer strategies that help you feel empowered and confident in navigating life’s challenges. Together, we’ll explore what works best for you, creating a space where you feel supported and understood, every step of the way.

What’s in a Name?

Through approaches like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), I offer evidence-based, ADHD-friendly therapy that helps you harness your strengths and build a life that feels balanced and fulfilling.
