Jennifer Elkins

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California with over 11 years of experience working with children, families and individuals. I have worked with clients on a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting struggles and trauma.

My therapy style is warm, interactive and empowering. I will work alongside you to develop insight into the concerns that brought you to therapy and develop coping skills and strategies to better move through your current struggles and life! Based on the individual’s needs and where they are at, I utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and solution focused therapy to develop skills to help my client move through the situation at hand.

Life can be complex and challenging for all of us at one time or another. It can require extra support and interventions to help move through the struggles we may be experiencing. I commend you on taking the first and sometimes most difficult step of seeking help and I look forward to supporting you along this journey.

Should you feel in need of urgent help or that you are in crisis at any time during our work together; please call 1-800-273-TALK 24 hours a day; or 911. This forum does not provide any type of emergency services, so it is important for you to have resources available to you if you need immediate help.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people question whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been found to be as effective for most people as traditional in-person treatment. A key advantage of online options is flexibility – clients can choose the format that fits their life best, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility often makes it easier to keep consistent appointments and integrate therapy into a busy schedule. Licensed professionals provide care across these formats, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible way to address everyday mental health concerns while maintaining the structure and support of regular therapeutic work.
