JENNIFER "JENNY" RETTE RUSSELL
Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor,
Registered Play Therapist, Practice Owner
I have a Masters of Science in Counseling, with a specialty in play therapy, from the world’s top-ranked play therapy program, University of North Texas (UNT). I have worked with adults, teens, children, and parents. I have been blessed to serve the profession working in university clinics, have extensive experience working in hospital emergency departments, and have devoted a significant amount of my career to non-profit agency work.
​
​I’m a registered play therapist and licensed professional counselor supervisor with years of experience in working with individuals in therapy. I specialize in trauma of all sorts, specifically post traumatic stress, complex trauma, medical trauma, and repressed trauma. Additionally, I focused my research in graduate school on siblings of chronically ill children as they, often by necessity, have less time with their parents which can have a variety of outcomes similar to chronic trauma. I help individuals with all sort of concerns from anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, to kids with “big feelings” who struggle with friends and family.
​
I’m also certified in Emotional Transformation Therapy™ (ETT™) which is a new form of therapy that rapidly alleviates emotional distress as well as physical pain. The term “transformation” refers to how quickly significant change typically occurs when ETT™ is used. It is a non-drug approach that can bypass the intellect and directly change human emotions.
​
I am genuine, passionate, and trustworthy. I consider working with clients to be my life’s greatest honor and privilege. If you are ready to take this journey together, please call to see if we are a good therapeutic fit. I look forward to walking beside you.
