Ms Tia Jennings

Licensed Professional Counselor

“Sometimes anxiety isn't just about what's happening in your life right now. It's connected to experiences, expectations, and patterns you've carried for years. Therapy is an opportunity to get curious about those connections, understand yourself differently, and begin making changes that actually fit your life.”

About me

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and clinical supervisor with over 15 years of experience helping people navigate anxiety, trauma, relationships, and life transitions. I work with adults who are trying to better understand themselves, their experiences, and the patterns that show up in their lives. My approach is conversational, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that people are more than their symptoms or diagnoses. I value authenticity, curiosity, and creating a space where you can show up as yourself without feeling like you need to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

Approach

My approach to therapy is pretty straightforward: we're going to have real conversations. I'm not the therapist who sits quietly, nods, and occasionally asks, "How does that make you feel?" I'm engaged in the conversation. I ask questions, share observations, challenge perspectives when appropriate, and encourage you to get curious about your own experiences. I believe understanding why we do what we do is just as important as figuring out what to do differently. Sometimes that means exploring experiences from the past, recognizing patterns in relationships, or questioning beliefs you've carried for years. Therapy isn't about me telling you how to live your life. It's about helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself so you can make choices that align with who you are and what you want.

Services

You might be someone who overthinks everything, struggles to set boundaries, feels responsible for everyone else's needs, or finds yourself repeating patterns you don't fully understand. Maybe you're navigating a major life transition, questioning relationships, processing difficult experiences, or realizing that the ways you've learned to manage life aren't working for you anymore. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Our work focuses on understanding what's happening beneath the surface, identifying patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and exploring what meaningful change looks like for you. You don't have to know exactly what you need from therapy before we begin. Sometimes figuring that out is where we start.
