At the core of my practice is a goal-driven approach that empowers clients to separate thoughts from emotions, challenge assumptions, and evaluate what strategies truly serve them. I believe therapy is not about giving advice but about guiding clients in processing their thoughts and determining the best path forward to achieve their goals.

I am committed to fostering a nonjudgmental, approachable space where clients feel comfortable, supported, and truly heard. My work is deeply rooted in understanding each client’s unique perspective, family dynamics, and challenges to help them develop solutions that align with their personal values and aspirations.

For couples, I strive to facilitate deeper understanding and connection, helping partners navigate conflict and strengthen their relationships. With athletes and teenagers, I provide a space to process stress, performance pressures, and personal growth, equipping them with the tools to thrive in and outside their fields.

Virginia Satir once said, “I want you to get excited about who you are, what you are, what you have, and what can still be for you. I want to inspire you to see that you can go far beyond where you are right now.” This perfectly captures my mission in therapy—to help clients embrace their potential, navigate change, and move forward with confidence.

When I emailed Wellness Counseling of Bergen I got an answer right away, the same day. Jennifer, the manager is amazing helping us to get an appointment the same week, and helping with everything related to insurance payments and claims. We are so thankful, blessed and fortunate to have them on our side.

Taylor is absolutely amazing! I’ve been with her for almost a full year and can attribute so many positive changes in my life to our sessions. I have and will continue to recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist:)

I highly recommend Wellness Counseling! Dr. Jen is a warm, kind-hearted, and very sincere therapist. When walking into her office, she greets you and is extremely welcoming. Her genuine care for her patients helps us feel at ease and I always feel relieved after our session. She has two office locations with several therapists that are highly qualified and can assist you with a multitude of therapy work as well, if she is not available. 5 stars for Dr. Jen and her team!!!

I spent a year working with Ali Whitney, it was a year well spent and I accomplished the goals Ali and I set throughout the year. Ali’s approach allowed me to work through feelings, emotions, and personal limitations and allowed me to overcome them in my own time, with her guidance and expertise. The new space is welcoming and relaxing and after each session I left feeling rejuvenated and ready to take on the world. Thank you so much!
