Jennifer Silvershein Teplin

Social Worker (Mental Health)

“Jennifer specializes in supporting individuals who experience self-doubt, difficulty in relationships, anxiety, eating disorders and low self-esteem. Jennifer helps her clients to recognize and make the changes necessary to create a life they love.”

About Me

I support individuals navigating self-doubt, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. We also explore the unique challenges of low self-esteem and eating disorders. My approach helps you recognise unhelpful patterns and cultivate meaningful changes. If these struggles hold you back, I offer a collaborative and compassionate space. Together, we can build a life you genuinely love, moving towards greater confidence and connection.

Approach

When self-doubt or anxious patterns show up, I help you notice where they live in daily life and test small, manageable shifts. Sessions in English are offered from my New York City office and online, keeping access flexible and steady. We balance brief, practical experiments with reflective exploration of relationship histories and body-image experiences, pacing work to your comfort and using between-session practices to track progress. This approach often fits people seeking compassionate, clear-focused change in confidence, eating concerns, and connection.
