Hello! I'm Jena Pulliam, a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor with over eight years of clinical experience. My professional journey is driven by a profound commitment to helping individuals navigate their unique mental health challenges. I specialize in treating a diverse clientele, including adults and adolescents who struggle with ADHD, Anxiety, Coping Skills, Depression, Trauma, and PTSD.

To achieve this, I integrate a variety of therapeutic modalities. My primary tools include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)�in which I am certified�motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused techniques. I am also EMDR trained, enhancing my ability to address issues related to trauma effectively. Alongside my licensure as a Professional Counselor, I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), which equips me with the advanced skills necessary to support those affected by trauma. My expertise is further complemented by my training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a distinguished psychotherapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working in a variety of settings�from community centers to private practice�gaining a broad perspective and a deep understanding of the mental health landscape. This experience has been instrumental in shaping my flexible and empathetic approach to counseling. At the core of my practice is the belief that everyone deserves to lead a fulfilling life, free from the burdens of unmanaged mental health issues. I strive to empower my clients, encouraging them to discover and harness their inner strengths to overcome the challenges they face. If you're seeking a compassionate, professional, and skilled counselor to guide you through your mental health journey, I would be honored to work with you. Let�s embark on a path to healing and growth together.

I operate from a strengths-based perspective, and I use a wide variety of therapeutic modalities dependent on what works best for you.

Do you experience negative or racing thoughts, anxious, depressed feelings or mood swings? Are your relationships hard? If you answered �yes� then we should talk. Improving quality of life through thought change, healthier coping skills, new perspectives and learning how to take control of interactions is what I do. You deserve to wake up energetic, excited for the day, look forward to work and doing what you love, have fun, easy relationships, think healthy thoughts and make choices that will lead to your best life. Change can feel scary, it does not need to. Together we will clarify what you want out of life and change what is no longer working for you and likely laugh along the way. If you can see yourself making the changes necessary to begin feeling better, I can show you how.
