“THE SECRET OF GETTING AHEAD IS GETTING STARTED”
-MARK TWAIN
Jennifer Dobies, M.ED., M.A,
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor specializing in providing counseling services in a supportive, safe, and non-judgmental environment. I believe that everyone can learn and grow in any situation they find themselves in throughout the journey of life. Over the last 25 years, I am fortunate to have had experience in major league baseball, teaching and school counseling, and the therapeutic environment. These career opportunities have helped foster great training and experiences that I bring into my practice.
I believe that there is no “one model fits all” when working with clients and that I will tailor my approach to each client’s needs. I take a Solution-focused and Acceptance and Commitment approach to therapy. I also specialize in ERP for OCD and anxiety treatment. I am certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), which is a beneficial tool to help process anxiety and trauma. My goal is to create a therapeutic experience that works best for you. I want you to empower yourself and build the most fulfilling life.
My office is easily accessible from any part of the Tampa Bay area. I have created a warm and welcoming space for us to work together. You have already taken the first step on your new journey in mental wellness.

The Last Child

Benefits of Travel on Your Mental Health
Travel and mental health are linked more directly than the holiday-brochure version suggests. Beyond the pleasure of going somewhere new, a change of place does a few specific things to a tired mind — and it is worth knowing what they are, because it determines what...
It’s a New Year!
Setting new year mental health goals works better than it has any right to, because a new year is a genuinely useful psychological marker. Researchers call it the fresh start effect — a dated boundary makes it easier to separate the person you were from the person you...

Navigating Anxiety During Family Holiday Events

Feeling Stuck
Feeling stuck in life is close to universal, and it is unusually good at convincing you it is permanent. Whether it shows up in your relationships, your career, or a general sense that the years are passing without much changing, the trapped feeling can be genuinely...
It’s an Odd World Right Now
