Jennifer Quick LSW, MSW

Licensed Social Worker

Hello everyone! Everyone deserves a place of solace—a space free from expectations, where both individuals and their loved ones can find peace. My name is Jennifer Quick, and I am dedicated to providing that sanctuary. With a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University and over two decades of experience, I bring a profound understanding of cultural diversity and gender fluidity to every therapeutic relationship. My practice is rooted in the belief that mental health care should be as unique as the individuals seeking it. By carefully selecting therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s specific needs, I empower clients to embark on their path toward healing and self-discovery.

I take a holistic approach to therapy, recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and lifestyle. My methods incorporate Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Strength-Based Models, and Positive Psychology. When working with children, I integrate CBT and DBT with mindfulness and guided imagery techniques. Additionally, I offer specialized parent coaching, utilizing evidence-based strategies to strengthen family dynamics and foster positive relationships.
