Jennifer Rickard
(She/Her/Hers)
Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT)
My holistic approach incorporates body, mind and spirit to help you create your full personal and relational potential.
As a couple and family therapist, I have a strong conviction in the healing power of healthy relationships. Connecting to your authentic self and fostering wellness in all relationships in your life is a primary focus of my work. I provide individual, couple and family psychotherapy for youth and adults of all family and relationship constellations. In my practice, I honor the spectrum of human and relationship diversity.
