    “I have recommended numerous people over the years to Jennifer - all very different characters with very different needs - and she has been able to treat them all. I think it’s the combination of being a true empath mixed with a very serious dedication to her craft/field. There is a plan forward. Her office is not a place to come and whine. It is a place to gather tools and learn how to use them. I am the man I am today because of her. We always applaud the doctor that found and removed the tumour but we hardly speak of mental health professionals in the same terms. For me, Jen qualifies. My life has been immeasurably changed by her work and I feel indebted in a similar fashion.”

    “I’ll never forget the feeling I left with after sitting with Jennifer Kaplan for the first time: Seen. Truly seen for the person I was not for the person I thought to be. Often we walk into therapy with false stories about who we are — mine began with “If only I wasn’t so anxious, then I might feel like I’m finally enough.” Jennifer’s ability to see through my shame and self-judgment helped provide a safe container to reframe this very lonely narrative into one in which I was inherently lovable. Her warmth, compassion, and understanding as well as her ability to see symptoms like anxiety and depression merely as flares from the soul in need of healing gave me the courage to come more fully into myself. Her years of well-trained clinical experience are matched by her innate ability to listen, reflect, empathize and hold. She is a gem of a therapist and I can’t recommend her enough.”

    “Before Jennifer, I could not have imagined a therapist like her. Today, I know that the lives of my child's children will be better for our work together. I arrived into her care a deeply wounded person, making choices from which I believed I'd never recover. I did not expect to find someone who could know me the way she came to know me. I did not expect I could completely reshape my internal landscape, or change the direction of my life. I owe all of the peace and joy and meaning in my life today to her. And I loved every minute of it. Even when it was hard. Jennifer is gentle and wise, and so crazy smart. She is creative and gracious and funny, and beautiful. One could not choose a better guide and companion to do the deep mining of the soul. I count my time as Jennifer's patient as one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I could not pass on a finer gift to others.”
