About Jennifer Reed-Grimmett
Jennifer Reed-Grimmett recognizes that asking for help is often the single hardest and most important step someone can take toward feeling better. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has provided supportive counseling for around 20 years. As an LPC, she listens carefully to clients' concerns and works to understand their goals so she can tailor an approach that meets immediate needs while supporting longer-term change.
She approaches therapy with warmth, plain-spoken clarity, and a nonjudgmental attitude. Early sessions may feel slow as she gathers a clear picture of a client's experiences and emotions, and she aims to offer calming exercises and practical short-term strategies to help people function more comfortably day to day. Over time she and the client collaborate to identify goals and build skills that foster greater peace and satisfaction in daily life.
Her own experience as a counseling client informs how she relates to others - she values a therapeutic relationship in which people feel understood, validated, and free to speak openly. Jennifer describes her style as engaging and genuine, combining coaching and motivation with client-centered support so individuals can decide their goals with guidance rather than prescription.
Jennifer works with a broad range of concerns, including stress, anxiety and panic; trauma and abuse of various kinds; parenting challenges; family conflict and family systems; self-esteem and depression; somatic disorders; personality disorders such as antisocial, narcissistic, and borderline features; grief including miscarriage and other losses; compassion fatigue; anger management; life transitions; and career difficulties. She also brings experience in law enforcement counseling and has a background in criminal justice, holding a BS in Criminal Justice and an AS in Law Enforcement. Additionally, she has worked with addictions, domestic violence, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, self-harm, suicidal ideation, and PTSD.
Clients can expect an involved therapist who offers tools for change while maintaining a collaborative, accepting stance. Jennifer aims to help people understand why they feel the way they do and to find practical pathways toward feeling better now and into the future.
