About Me
Hi, I'm Jennifer Benoit, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, mom, and recovering people-pleaser. I’ve navigated my share of challenging relationships, so I understand what it’s like to feel alone, unheard, and unsure of how to trust yourself again. These types of relationships can leave you feeling drained, unsure of your worth, and constantly questioning your own perspective.Becoming a mother gave me a profound sense of urgency to address unhealed wounds and break the patterns I had inherited—so I could create a healthier, more conscious life for both myself and my child.
Healing isn't an easy journey, but it is worth every step. It taught me that peace is possible, boundaries are an act of love, and that self-trust can be rebuilt one decision at a time.
Now, I help other mothers who are breaking free from toxic relationships reconnect with themselves, rediscover their strength, and rebuild lives that feel grounded and whole. My approach combines therapeutic insight with real-life tools for emotional healing, boundary-setting, and self-compassion—because you deserve more than just survival. You deserve to thrive.
Our experiences before and outside of motherhood shape how we show up as mothers. The way we were raised, the roles we’ve learned to play, our trauma, our coping patterns, the quality of our relationships, and even how connected we feel to our own bodies—all of it influences how much we can truly enjoy motherhood. As parents, many of us feel a deep desire to break unhealthy patterns and give our children something better.
Motherhood, for me, has been a powerful invitation to heal and grow in ways I never expected. If you’re on a similar journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Together, we’ll work to help you create a life that feels peaceful, balanced, and truly yours.
Let's hop on a consultation call to see if we are a good fit.

FAQ's
Can I pay through insurance?
We only accept private pay through bank or credit card payments.
Do I pay per session?
Yes, sessions are billed per hour. If you opt to pay for a package deal of 8 sessions at a time, you will receive a discount.
How often do we meet?
Initially, weekly sessions are typically recommended in order to build a therapeutic rapport and build momentum toward your goals.
Can my insurance cover some of the cost of therapy even I pay privately?
Possibly! Some insurance plans include “out-of-network mental health benefits” - which means even if you see a therapist who is not on their list of approved “in-network” providers, you may be eligible for some reimbursement of session fees. It depends on the specific benefits of your insurance plan.
We encourage you to follow up with your insurance plan if you are unsure about what is covered. Usually, there is a phone number on the back of your insurance card that you can call to speak with an insurance representative or a website where you can access your plan information.
Here are some questions that we encourage you to ask:
1. Do I have “out-of-network mental health benefits”?
2. If so, how much or what percentage of session fees are covered?
3. How do I submit claims in order to receive reimbursement? How long does it take to receive a reimbursement check?
4. Is there a session limit, deductible, or pre-authorization required?
Those who have “out of network mental health benefits” are usually asked to submit invoices from attended therapy sessions that include a CPT/service code and a diagnostic code. Our invoices (called “superbills” ) will always include this information.
