Hi, and welcome - I am honored to have you here.
I want to acknowledge how challenging it can be to reach out for support—you’ve already taken an important step toward caring for yourself.
I’m Jinida, a Licensed Master Social Worker, and I’m truly honored to walk alongside you. I love working with men and women navigating anxiety and depression from trauma, pregnancy & postpartum mental health, women’s health, breast cancer, religious trauma, family dynamics, teen pregnancy, life transitions, and first responders and their families.
My professional experience spans over nine years in social work and six years leading training and support programs, giving me a deep understanding of the challenges people face. Combined with my personal experience as a wife and mother of five, I bring empathy, insight, and practical guidance to every session. My professional and personal experiences strengthen my ability to meet clients with understanding, compassion, and actionable support.
I use a warm, flexible approach, drawing from CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed practices, always tailoring support to your unique needs. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and empowered to heal, grow, and thrive.
