As a woman and a mother, I deeply understand the transformations and challenges women face throughout their lives and have a passion for helping people cultivate a life that is meaningful, empowering, and nourishing.
Hello! My name is Jenna Aiken. I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor. I work with clients in North Carolina via telehealth. I have a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a certificate in Addiction Counseling. I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology. My professional work experience includes private counseling practice, emergency department crisis assessment, community mental health, substance abuse treatment, and domestic violence prevention. My clinical focus is women, especially mothers, who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or identity shifts.
I believe in meeting clients where they are and creating a warm, supportive environment in which women feel safe to explore themselves and their world. I view clients through a holistic lens. My goal is to empower clients to work through their concerns in the therapy session while they are building a more supportive lifestyle outside the therapy session.
Life can be challenging at times but you are not alone. Healing and growth are possible no matter what you have experienced. If you want support working on your therapeutic goals, please reach out to work with me and schedule an initial assessment. Talk soon!

As someone who has dealt with mental health challenges in the past, I have a genuine understanding for people who deal with it. I know the pain that comes with going through mental health issues. This has created empathy in me for others who deal with mental health challenges and makes my work extremely meaningful to me.
I earned my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in Substance Use Disorders from Colorado Christian University. My experience includes interning at an opioid outpatient facility and I'm eager to bring that foundation into private practice. I work with adolescents and adults up to middle age and I'm interested in treating anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, developmental issues, and relationship concerns. I also offer faith-based counseling and help people find meaning and purpose. Everyone deserves a space to process what's hard, whether they're in crisis or just need someone to talk to.
Person-Centered Counseling guides how I build relationships with clients and reminds me that each person is unique. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address faulty thinking and negative beliefs, Emotion-Focused Therapy when issues are emotional, and Attachment theory to explore how family relationships shape the way we see ourselves and the world.
Mental health challenges can be hard and lonely to walk through—I've been there myself, and I'm blessed to have come out of it. I want to help you on your journey. In our sessions, you'll be accepted as you are and free to move at your own pace. I won't push any approach on you; I want you to feel like you have a real say in the direction we go.

As a West African immigrant fluent in two cultures, with over 10 years of experience across medical, administrative, and behavioral health roles, I bring a culturally informed and compassionate approach to care that supports and empowers diverse individuals navigating life’s challenges.
I am a licensed clinical social worker associate (LCSWA) with 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adults and young adults navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use concerns, mood disorders, and major life transitions. I have experience supporting individuals with complex mental health diagnoses and am committed to providing compassionate, person-centered care that meets clients where they are.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Kentucky after completing my bachelor’s degree in psychology from Fayetteville State University. My clinical experience includes work in psychosocial rehabilitation and day treatment settings, where I utilized CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic, and person-centered approaches.
I believe meaningful change happens through collaboration, trust, and consistency. I strive to create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can explore challenges, build coping skills, and work toward improved mental health and overall well-being. I look forward to supporting you on your journey and invite you to schedule a session with me.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.
