Find your happiness and learn to put it first.
Jacqueline Imbemba, LMHC-D, LPC, CCATP
Maybe your thoughts never shut off. You’re constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop. You’re scrolling TikTok to avoid thinking, binge-watching another show instead of dealing with what’s actually bothering you, or wondering when exactly you stopped feeling like yourself.
If any of that sounds familiar, I’m your girl.
I’m not your average therapist, and I don’t believe therapy has to feel clinical, awkward, or like you’re talking to someone who just nods and asks, “And how does that make you feel?” My approach is real, relatable, supportive, and completely judgment-free. I want you to feel like you can walk into a session, take a breath, and actually be yourself.
I’m a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional and I utilize a variety of treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions to help clients build lasting change. You’ll leave sessions with practical tools you can actually use when anxiety, overthinking, and life start taking over again.
I’m licensed in New York, New Jersey, and Florida and meet my clients exactly where they are. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. That’s kind of the point.
If you’re ready to quiet the noise, understand yourself a little better, and start feeling like you again, let’s talk.
I founded A Place For You with a simple mission: to create the kind of practice she would want for her own family—a place where people feel welcomed, understood, and never judged for seeking help.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, facing a life transition, or simply looking for support, I believe that healing begins when you find a place where you truly belong and I hope A Place For You can be that place for you.

SPECIALIZING IN WORKING WITH KIDS, ADULTS, COUPLES, MOMS AND FAMILIES
Overthinking, stress, or your thoughts just won’t take a break? You’re not alone—and therapy doesn’t have to be all serious faces and quiet rooms. I work with individuals, couples, and families to navigate anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions in a supportive, judgment-free space.
My approach is evidence-based and eclectic: I draw from CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic Theory to help you understand your patterns, build practical coping skills, and uncover what’s driving your thoughts and emotions. I also specialize in relationship, couples, and family therapy, helping people communicate better, set healthy boundaries, and strengthen connections. I am trained in treating Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMAD), offering compassionate, evidence-based support during pregnancy and the postpartum period. We’ll tackle challenges together, celebrate progress (big and small), and help you feel more in control, resilient, and confident in your life—while keeping the process engaging, approachable, and yes, sometimes even a little fun.

SPECIALIZING IN WORKING WITH KIDS, TEENS, COLLEGE STUDENTS, AND ADULTS
Hi, I'm Jenna, and I am so excited to meet you.
What makes this world so special to me is the beautiful people who live in it. Part of that beauty is the courage it takes to share your hopes, struggles, and story with someone who starts as a stranger. Beginning therapy takes a lot of courage, and I never take the trust you place in me for granted.
You are the expert of your own story. My role is to walk alongside you as we work through life's challenges, navigate the stuck points, and help you reconnect with the person you were always meant to be. My approach is warm, relational, and collaborative. I want you to feel seen, heard, and supported from the moment you walk into the room. Together, we'll build practical coping skills, explore the experiences and relationships that have shaped you, and create space for healing, growth, and meaningful change.
I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, and adults, meeting each person where they are with compassion and curiosity. My work is rooted in a strengths-based, attachment-focused approach while drawing from psychodynamic theory to better understand how past experiences and relationships continue to shape the present. I also incorporate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to help clients build emotional regulation skills, increase self-awareness, and develop practical tools to navigate life's challenges. Above all, I believe you already have the resilience and capacity for growth within you. My hope is to help you recognize those strengths, build on them, and feel more connected to your authentic self.
It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and growth.

SPECIALIZING IN WORKING WITH CHILDREN AND TEENS
Life can feel overwhelming at times, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m a compassionate, empathic therapist who believes meaningful change begins when you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. From a young age, I felt a deep pull toward supporting others through life’s most challenging moments—and that passion continues to shape the work I do today.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, relationship concerns, autism, and the emotional weight that comes with navigating daily life. Therapy with me is collaborative and supportive without judgment. I integrate cognitive-behavioral techniques to help you better understand your thoughts, regulate emotions, and build practical skills you can use outside of sessions. My approach balances insight with action, empowering you to develop resilience, confidence, and a stronger connection to yourself. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to treat Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMAD), helping clients build coping skills and feel more grounded during pregnancy and postpartum.
What I find most meaningful is watching clients gain clarity, apply what they’ve learned in real life, and begin to feel more in control of their story. My goal is to support you in uncovering your strengths, healing at your own pace, and creating lasting, meaningful change. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

SPECIALIZING IN WORKING WITH KIDS, TEENS, COLLEGE STUDENTS, AND ADULTS
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, and it’s completely normal to be unsure of where to begin. If you’re here, you’ve already taken an important step toward caring for yourself.
I work with children, teens, and adults dealing with anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, relationship issues, autism, and everyday stress, as well as depression, career pressures, family conflicts, and the emotional impact of life changes. I also support clients processing trauma, including cultural and intergenerational experiences that influence identity, expectations, and family bonds. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and evidence-based, using CBT, DBT, ACT, and other methods, including mindfulness, narrative techniques, and family-centered strategies. For younger clients, I incorporate developmentally appropriate techniques to help children and teens express themselves, manage emotions, and develop coping skills. Together, we explore thoughts and feelings, strengthen coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting growth.
Therapy isn’t about changing who you are; it’s about discovering and strengthening the best parts of yourself. This will be a safe, respectful space where you can feel heard, supported, and comfortable exploring life’s challenges. You don’t have to face them alone, and we’ll work through them together.

BOOK WITH SELENA
Juana Quintero, MHC-LP
Sometimes life can look completely fine from the outside while internally you’re overthinking, carrying everyone else’s needs, questioning yourself, or simply feeling exhausted from trying to hold everything together. Therapy can be a place where you don’t have to do that alone.
As a Mental Health Counselor, I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family challenges, self-esteem concerns, grief, and life transitions. I especially enjoy helping clients who find themselves stuck in cycles of overthinking, struggling to set boundaries, putting themselves last, or feeling unsure about how to move forward.
My style as a therapist is warm, collaborative, and genuine. I want our sessions to feel like a space where you can be honest, even when your thoughts feel messy or difficult to explain. I also believe therapy should give you something you can take with you beyond the therapy room. Using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), we may explore thought patterns, emotions, relationships, coping strategies, communication, and practical skills that can help you navigate everyday life differently.
I believe growth doesn’t always look like a major transformation. Sometimes it looks like saying no without feeling guilty, responding differently to a situation that once overwhelmed you, quieting an anxious thought, or simply choosing yourself a little more often.
You don’t need to come to therapy knowing exactly what you want to change. We can figure that out together.
