Dr. Jenna integrates neuroscience, interpersonal processing, and evidence-based therapy to help clients build insight and strengthen coping skills that support lasting change. She believes that deepening awareness of emotional, relational, and bodily patterns can foster meaningful growth and help individuals move toward the lives they envision. Her approach emphasizes attunement to rhythms of daily life, emotional experience, and the ways the mind and body communicate with one another.
Her research background further informs her clinical work. At Boston College, Jenna conducted research through the Friendship Lab, which later expanded into her work using UCLA PEERS social skills interventions with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating relationship and social concerns. During her doctoral training, she developed a strong interest in chronic medical conditions and the mind–body connection, culminating in a dissertation focused on the lived experience of Functional Neurological Disorder. This work reinforced the importance of collaborative, compassionate care that bridges medical and mental health perspectives. Dr. Jenna strives to provide collaborative and compassionate care into her work with individuals and families.
