Jennifer has a lifelong passion for helping others which led her to pursue a career in psychotherapy. After years of working in a variety of roles in the profession – including teaching at the university level, working for the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic, and running her own private practice, she felt there was a gap in the options available to those seeking mental health services – with sole practitioners on one end and national “doc in the box” practices on the other end. She decided to create Better Minds – a boutique mental health practice focused on modern therapeutic approaches and individually tailored care to better address the mental health needs of those in her community.
