Jennifer Hawkins

Jennifer Hawkins is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of New York with a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from SUNY Oswego. Jennifer has been practicing counseling in a variety of settings since 2015 and has been employed in the human services field since 2007. In 2022, Jennifer became a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). Jennifer enjoys working with individuals on a wide array of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationships, and the ups and downs of life. Through the counseling relationship, you and Jennifer will work together to help identify negative thinking and build on the strengths and skills that you already possess. Jennifer will help you gain insight into your emotions and support you in feeling empowered to overcome and manage negative thoughts and feelings. Jennifer is now offering in person or telehealth services! *Note: Telehealth counseling services are limited to those living in the state of NY per licensing restrictions. Once you are ready to schedule your first session, you will receive a link via email to join the client portal. This is where you are able to review and electronically sign all intake documents as well as provide necessary information about you. You can also upload and store billing information for convenient online payment. Jennifer is currently in network with many insurances (see below). In most cases, insurance companies require a diagnosis, possible access to your medical records, and sometimes dictate the number of "covered" sessions you are allowed. If you are okay with this, insurance can be a nice option. If you are not comfortable and prefer to maintain more privacy, private pay is always an option. I accept credit and debit cards, HSA, or FSA accounts.
