Jennifer Sanford
M.S., LMFT

Jennifer Sanford is a psychotherapist and a respected executive business coach.
You can contact Jennifer directly at
sanfordjenn@aol.com 
Her experience includes working for fifteen years in the Financial Industry before obtaining her Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy.


Jennifer’s nature is one of compassion. She is skillful and empathic when working with clients. Jennifer believes that individuals and families already have the answers, but not always the permission or roadmaps, to change or to discover new ways of being. Her deep passion stems from her belief that within all people rests the innate ability to heal.


Her therapeutic views have been influenced by teachings of Western therapists and have been inspired by the contemplative, mindfulness-based approaches of the East. The mindfulness-based approach emphasizes one’s awareness of the present moment through meditation and attention-focusing exercises.


She works with her clients to help them feel more empowered to create and nurture the lives and relationships they want for themselves and were meant to lead. Jennifer is constantly amazed and humbled by the courage, adaptability and uniqueness of each person’s story. She considers it a privilege to be a therapist and respects the tenacity of the human spirit to guide the individual towards wholeness.
