jen reisinger mental health counselor therapy gig harbor

Hi, I’m Jen.

My name is Jen Reisinger and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been practicing in the State of Washington since 2010. In my clinical work, I am passionate about working with clients who are navigating motherhood and have been practicing grief counseling in Washington for many years. I actively partner with my clients as they navigate the challenging chapters in life and build new patterns and skills that allow them to live life to their fullest.

Many of my clients come to my therapy office explaining that what they’re currently doing to manage the overwhelm of motherhood or the pain of a loss isn’t working. I work with my clients to increase their ability to cope with symptoms of anxiety or depression, tune into their needs, set and communicate boundaries, or find meaning through major life transitions, grief or loss.

I hold a Masters in Counseling Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology. As a Perinatal Mental Health Therapist in Washington I hold specialized training to support this significant life transition. I am trained in EMDR therapy, harnessing the healing power of the brain. I have specialized training in child and adolescent therapy, postpartum mental health and grief/loss.

Outside of the therapy office I try humbly to embrace a whole-hearted life, trying to create meaningful space to experiencing the joys and challenges of this one messy life. You’ll often find me attempting to check books off my to-be-read list, having dance parties with my kids in the kitchen, sipping on homemade iced americanos, moving with my favorite Peloton instructors in my ear or diving deep into conversation about life with good friends.
