“When we’re looking for compassion, we need someone who is deeply rooted is able to bend, and most of all, embraces us for our strengths
​and struggles."
 - brene Brown
Jennie realized, through her own experience, that working with the body can create a huge shift in understanding how one is organized. This knowledge is what she brings to her in work with clients. She has a very curious, down-to-earth quality and has a depth of presence that leads to providing consistent empathy to the client’s pain, and allows them to face difficulties and challenges both internal and external. Her work with clients is collaborative, relational and nurturing. She helps them build compassion for themselves and regain access to their lost positive qualities that often have been overwhelmed by trauma and disconnection.
