Hi, I’m Jennifer Simms, LCMHCA.
I am a therapist who is considered a “generalist” because I work with an array of ages and concerns. I ask that you come to session willing to be uncomfortable because, like building physical strength, mental and emotional growth require a safe amount of discomfort. I take pride in creating this safe space for your growth to occur and value your trust in me. I ask that you also trust yourself, the process, and yourself within the process.
Jennifer’s relationship with God is her number one pursuit and she feels closest to Him while spending time in nature. She played fastpitch softball while attending Greensboro College and still enjoys being very physically active in many ways.
Jennifer is a self-proclaimed cat lady in training and, with every passing year, feels she is well on her way to successfully fulfilling this role. When not petting her cats you are likely to find Jennifer spending time with her son, beating someone at UNO or ping pong, in a thrift store, exercising, reading a book, or drinking coffee.
