Jennifer Holt, LIMHP
When I worked as a child protective services worker, I saw countless children/families who had survived very difficult circumstances, time and time again! I realized that I wanted to be there to provide additional support to people during those circumstances, and to help in the aftermath. It eventually led me to the decision to go back to school to earn my Master’s degree in Counseling. While working on my degree, I was employed with a skilled nursing facility in a social work capacity. I worked with people struggling with depression, end-of-life issues, grief/loss, and helped to address family problems that arose. I have worked as a licensed therapist since 2009, initially with children and adolescents in foster care, as well as their foster families, and then within the correctional system working with offenders. During my employment in corrections, I worked with people on an individual basis and co-facilitated many groups. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, chronic health problems, victim issues, and I even had opportunities to work with military veterans. The common thread I’ve noticed along my career path has been that I have never stopped seeing that incredible resilience that people have within them!
