About Jennifer Kim-Ardakani

Jennifer Kim-Ardakani is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Minnesota with seven years of professional experience. LMFT stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a credential indicating specialized training to work with individuals, couples, and families through relational and systemic approaches. She has supported people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, addiction, and anger management.

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversation and treatment plans to fit individual needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method. In addition to talk-based methods, she practices Brainspotting, a mind-body technique that uses attention to bodily and visual markers to help process difficult experiences and support deeper healing and problem resolution.

Jennifer emphasizes that seeking change takes courage and that taking the first steps toward a more fulfilling life is an important part of the process. She aims to provide support and empowerment throughout that journey.
