Jennifer 'Jenna' Nevins

Jennifer ‘Jenna’ Nevins is a person-centered therapist who centers the therapeutic relationship as the starting point for change. With a focus on building trust and safety, she partners with clients to explore their goals and to find pathways forward - acknowledging that there are many routes up the mountain and that rerouting is part of the process.

She brings five years of clinical experience working with a range of concerns, including trauma, grief, disability, postpartum depression and anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, parenting challenges, OCD, and Autism. Jenna is committed to helping clients make sense of their symptoms so they can move beyond mere coping toward greater understanding and long-term well-being.

Her work draws on a variety of therapeutic tools such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), EMDR, parts work, trauma-focused therapy, and traditional talk therapy. She combines person-centered values with reality/choice theory to support both deep understanding and practical change, helping clients reclaim a sense of choice, agency, and self-worth.

Jenna identifies as a female, gay, non-religious, liberal therapist and holds IA LMHC 099339 - an Iowa Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential. She aims to create a space where clients can exhale, be seen without judgment, and feel proud of the effort it takes to show up. Jenna walks alongside each person as they find their own way forward.
