My Ideal Client
With a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Stephens College and a master's in social work from the University of South Carolina, Jennifer Messina's diverse mental health background includes case management for youth aging out of foster care, therapeutic & behavioral management for geriatric patients in home health care, and as a therapist at an inpatient psychiatric center/in private practice.
My Approach to Helping
She's deeply passionate about the social work vocation, with a wholehearted belief in creating a nurturing, safe environment for any navigating unique struggles: gender dysphoria, LGBTQIA, racial discrimination, ageism, or socioeconomic disadvantage. Her commitment to clients shows in her use of evidence-based techniques: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), & Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). She's now pursuing specialized training in hypnosis therapy through the American Institute of Healthcare Professionals.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
In her free time, she enjoys an active lifestyle that includes listening to music and participating in barre and yoga classes and spending time with her family. She’d love to meet you in a free phone consult! Schedule one via email, call/text 503-694-3381, or click Schedule Now on our website.
