The Safe Space

This therapeutic office space was thoughtfully designed to convey warmth and send a clear message to children, teens, adults and families that this space is for them to be truly who they are and to be feel free while exploring the room and everything in it. The toys, games and materials are carefully selected to facilitate and serve as a medium for children and adults alike to communicate, express feelings, allow for exploration and expression without verbalization.

Safe Outlet!

Healing connections (Ms. Jen) was a home away from home for my daughter. She was struggling with nightmares and bad thoughts. We all found Ms. Jen to be warm and sweet and soon discovered this safe outlet to be exactly what my daughter needed to freely speak/play about what her fears were and how to deal with them in a healthy manner. The coping skills she was given help her in other aspects of life as well. She found her voice and her inner power and the confidence she needed to overcome her fears and stand up for herself. I couldn't be more proud of her and I have Ms. Jen to thank for that

Highly Recommend!

We cannot recommend Jennifer enough! First of all, her space is adorable, clean, and perfectly suited to engage her patients in therapeutic play. My kiddo absolutely LOVES going to play therapy! He leaves his sessions feeling supported, creative, and inspired. He deeply trusts Jen and we drive roughly 1.5-2 hours round trip just to see her! She is neurodiversity affirming (BIG plus!) and has such a calm and gentle energy about her. She has been an absolute gift to my child and, in turn, our family. Thank you, Jen!
