About Jennifer Christensen

Hi! My name is Jennifer Christensen, and I would love to meet you! I am a solution-focused therapist, which means I want to help you learn, grow, and heal. I believe in the importance of your story, and I know you have many strengths to assist you in overcoming life's challenges. I am licensed as an LCSW in Utah with 3 years of clinical experience. I am also licensed as a School Social Worker/Professional Educator by the Utah State Board of Education, and I have 9 years of nonclinical social work experience which includes psychoeducation, community engagement, and grant facilitation. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I serve children (ages 8+), adolescents, and families, and I have experience working with neurodivergent, LBGTQ+, and trans teens. It takes courage to seek out a happier and more fulfilling life and take the first steps toward change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
