Jennifer Owusu, LCSW

With almost a decade of experience, I help individuals reconnect with their strength, navigate challenges, and heal from emotional wounds. My work is trauma-focused, grounded in compassion, cultural understanding, and genuine connection. My early experience in the South Bronx shaped my approach—working with BIPOC and immigrant communities, children and families in the system, and individuals facing financial and relationship challenges.

At the core of every meaningful relationship is a desire to feel understood. Whether it’s from family, friends, colleagues, or even neighbors, we all seek that connection. But what happens when you feel that no one truly “gets” you? When the weight of life's toughest moments feels too much to bear alone? If you’ve found yourself searching for a therapist who truly understands, you're not alone—I’ve been in your shoes too. I've Googled “therapy near me” more times than I can count, hoping to find someone who not only listens, but resonates with my experience and creates a space where I can truly open up.

I integrate a range of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), to name just a few. These methods, along with my compassionate approach, will support you on your journey toward healing and growth.

I provide a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. Whether you're here to vent, cry, laugh, or simply be silent, I’ll meet you where you are. Together, we'll navigate your challenges and create a therapeutic experience that’s uniquely tailored to you. Let’s walk this path together to create the therapeutic experience you deserve.
