About Jenifer Regennitter
Jenifer Regennitter is a licensed counselor holding LCPC and LMHC credentials - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor - who brings formal training and extensive clinical experience to her practice. She earned a Master of Science in Education in Counseling and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Western Illinois University, and has practiced as a masters-level clinician in behavioral health since 2000, totaling 25 years of experience.
Over the course of her career she has provided care across levels of treatment, including residential, inpatient, outpatient, and community mental health settings, which has informed a broad perspective on the recovery process and the range of supports people may need. She has worked with adults from diverse spiritual backgrounds and has provided Christian counseling for those who wish to explore faith in relation to life challenges.
Her clinical work focuses on areas such as stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. Additional concentrations include abandonment, caregiver stress, codependency, dissociation, family of origin concerns, guilt and shame, isolation, life purpose, mood disorders, panic attacks, and postpartum depression. Jenifer draws from a variety of therapeutic approaches - including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and elements of art-focused interventions - tailoring methods to each person’s strengths and goals.
She frames counseling as a collaborative process in which clinician and client work together to identify growth opportunities and build on existing resources. Practical homework and skill-building are used at times to extend therapeutic work beyond sessions. Throughout her practice, she aims to help people expand what is possible for their lives and move toward greater calm, balance, and wellbeing.
