Stormy Seas Coaching and Counseling

03/03/2026

🥁Announcing a two-part virtual training series for licensed therapists (and registered interns!), each offered at an introductory rate of $65 per workshop while CEU approval is pending.
Part One: Reasonable Accommodations & Mental Health: A Clinical Guide will be held Friday, April 17th from 12:00–2:00PM EST, and focuses on equipping clinicians to confidently support clients seeking workplace accommodations under the ADA. Participants will learn how to assess functional impairment, translate mental health symptoms into job-relevant language, and complete documentation ethically within scope of practice.
Part Two: FMLA & Short-Term Disability for Mental Health Providers will be held Friday, May 8th from 12:00–2:00PM EST, and provides clear, practical guidance on supporting clients requesting intermittent or continuous leave under FMLA and STD.

Across both workshops, I draw from my dual background as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and HR professional specializing in Accessibility and ADA compliance to bridge the gap between clinical care and employer processes. Through templates, case examples, and real-world documentation strategies, therapists will gain the tools, clinical language, and practical guidance needed to advocate effectively while remaining grounded in their professional role. Welcome to take one or both training workshops!

When two of your favorite insta-famous pediatricians .tommymartin and .phoebe casually appear on the sidewalk outside your counseling office like a crossover episode you didn’t know you needed. Totally made my day! So fun and unexpected running into you both out in the wild! Love when life surprises you in the best way. 💙

“Hope is not a lottery ticket you can sit on the sofa and clutch, feeling lucky.
It is an axe you break down doors with in an emergency.” — Rebecca Solnit

Hope isn’t passive. It’s active, courageous, and within your power.
In therapy, we don’t wait for things to change—we work together to build the tools, insight, and resilience that help you move forward, even when it feels hard.

Hope can be practiced. And sometimes, it starts with taking the first step. 🤍

✨ Hi, I’m Jen! ✨

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Intrinsic Life Coach. For the past 14 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people in their healing journeys here in the Jacksonville beaches area.

I help people navigate many of life’s challenges, including:
⚓️ New mamas adjusting postpartum and through motherhood’s many stressors
⚓️ Anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and people-pleasing (learning to value your voice, set the boundaries of your dreams, and release guilt)
⚓️ Healing after breakups or divorce
⚓️ Grief and loss in all its forms
⚓️ Career stress, burnout, and professional growth
⚓️ Couples counseling—deepening connection, improving communication, and leveling the mental load of family life
⚓️ Healing from church hurt and spiritual abuse
⚓️ Recovery after trauma, including childhood traumas.
… and so many of the other hard, messy, and beautiful parts of being human.

In addition to my clinical work, I’ve also had the honor of guiding Fortune 200 companies in their journeys toward Disability Inclusion—helping dismantle ableism and create workplaces where people with diverse disabilities, mental health conditions, and neurodiversity are supported, valued, pursued, and elevated.

At the heart of it all, I believe healing begins when we feel seen, valued, and safe to embrace our full selves—without apology. 🤍
