Meet Jennifer

Jennifer Hardaway has a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling which she obtained from the CACREP accredited program at Sam Houston State University. She has served various roles in the mental health profession since 2019. Before starting her career as a licensed counselor, Jennifer gained experience as a caretaker for children in the custody of CPS at a Residential Treatment Center, a caretaker of a group home for adults with disabilities, and as a social worker providing mental health services to people experiencing homelessness in Dallas County. She started her counseling career working in a clinic that specialized its services toward children on the autistic spectrum and other neurodivergent diagnoses. Jennifer is currently working towards full licensure as an LPC-associate under the supervision of Dr. Nicole Black, PhD, LPC-S, LCDC, RPT.

Jennifer gained a passion for working with victims of trauma after obtaining her undergraduate degree in Victim Studies from the nationally ranked Criminal Justice program at Sam Houston State University. Jennifer’s knowledge about intimate partner violence, child abuse, sexual assault, and adverse childhood experiences have been essential in gaining an understanding of the support victims need to transform into healed survivors. Jennifer strives to continue education towards topics of trauma informed care, generational cycles of trauma, EMDR therapy, addiction, play therapy, and self-care practices.

Jennifer has had the privilege to work with a diverse range of clients who have sought counseling to overcome and cope with issues such as trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, ASD, suicidal ideation, self-esteem, divorce, addiction, and issues relating to the LGBTQ-IA community. She has experience conducting individual and group sessions for clients who are children, adolescents, and adults.

Jennifer’s philosophy for counseling is that everybody deserves to be validated, heard, and accepted for who they are and where they are in life. She believes that everybody should be allotted the chance to heal and grow from past traumas and/or current difficulties and stressors. Jennifer approaches counseling as her genuine authentic self to offer her clients unconditional positive regard, respect, and a genuine empathetic understanding. Her goal is to provide clients with a safe space where they feel comfortable discussing and exploring difficult subject matter. Jennifer is a strength-based clinician that helps her clients identify the strengths they possess to navigate the counseling process and emphasizes positive psychology in her sessions. Jennifer currently accept Aetna insurance and private pay. Evening appointments available.

Jennifer sees clients in person at our Farmers Branch location.
