The name of my practice reflects some of my personal interests; nature, and hiking. I’ve always appreciated the “journey” and feel that my role as a therapist is to witness and support the life journey of others.
About
Jenna Korim
I have 15 years of experience in providing individual mental health therapy. My Bachelors in Psychology was obtained from SUNY Binghamton in 2007 and I received my Masters in Social Work from SUNY Albany in 2009. I am a LCSWR (Licensed Clinician Social Worker, 2011) and PMHC (Perinatal Mental Health Certified, 2022).
​
I use approaches that blend education, an understanding of the mind-body relationship, evaluating behaviors and thoughts that might not be supportive, and exploring attachment dynamics in relationships.
​
Individual counseling with me may be for you if:
-
You’ve spent so much of your life being hard on yourself — pushing your needs aside, battling guilt, and feeling stuck in cycles of never being ‘enough.'
-
Parenthood often magnifies this pressure, leaving you exhausted and questioning if you’re doing it right.
-
You may also be yearning to break free from diet culture’s grip — to find a way of living that feels nourishing, not punishing.
-
You just can't seem to settle, in your brain and/or body
-
Fear, worry, low motivation and/or going through the motions are keeping you from feeling present
-
You want to understand your patterns and behaviors in relationships with others and/or yourself
​
​My approaches stem from attachment-based concepts to help you understand where these patterns began, soften your inner critic, and build a more secure and compassionate relationship with yourself. I also believe that mental health is not just about the brain but involves the stories our bodies tell. Nervous system and somatic approaches are weaved into my work.
​
Since mental health is not the only aspect of overall health, I believe it is important to look at the whole picture, which also includes nutrition, movement, social, cultrual, and spiritual health. If needs arise that are beyond how I can support, I work to connect you with providers who can.

*Sessions are conducted both in person and online, although in person options are limited*
Embarking on the journey to and through parenthood comes with challenges that can often feel isolating and lonely. Therapy with a mental health professional can help process the below major life experiences and transitions.
-
preparing for pregnancy
-
navigating infertility
-
pregnancy loss in any trimester
-
early postpartum loss
-
pregnancy that did not go as planned
-
pregnancy after loss
-
birth experience that did not go as planned
-
finding the adjustment to pregnancy/postpartum life difficult
-
navigating shift and change with your partner
Non-birthing partners are also impacted by the above experiences and are served in my practice too.
If you are a therapist looking to seek growth and obtain feedback on challenging cases, I offer 1:1 clinical supervision.
​
Together we can explore case dynamics and the emotional impact of this work--while honoring your unique skillset and values as a clinician.
​
My approaches pull from Somatic work, Attachment theory, Polyvagal theory, Trauma informed, & Cognitive Behavioral. I am also trained in Perinatal Mental Health.
