Jennifer Justice, Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern

Hello, My name is Jennifer Justice. I have always been a very creative and artistic person. Inspiration, guidance, and ambition naturally led me to pursue a career in counseling. I graduated from Stetson University with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with Advanced Studies in Marriage, Families, & Couples Therapy. As a counselor, I appreciate a person centered approach to therapy, allowing the client to explore their thoughts, feelings, and emotions in a safe space without judgement. I provide the opportunity for client's to work through their challenges, learn new coping skills and develop effective stress management techniques, so they can move forward with a sense of confidence in their lives. I would be honored to walk beside you on this journey.

Therapy Dog

I would love the opportunity to introduce you to my counseling assistant “Ferris”. He is a therapy dog in- training. Ferris is a Tri-Colored Chiweenie, and weighs about 10 lbs. He is very lovable, great with kids and adults, and is empathetic and aware of client’s emotions.

Hobbies and Interests

In my free time I enjoy spending time with family, friends, and my pets. My hobbies

include gourmet cooking and baking, arts and crafts, dancing, karaoke, martial arts, and scuba diving. I have always had a passion for rescuing pets in need, so I started Bella’s Beagle Brigade Pet Rescue in 2014 to rescue and rehabilitate cats and dogs in Orlando, Florida.
