About Dr. Jennifer Lotz, PsyD

Working as a psychologist is a calling for me. Helping others in their healing and growth is meaningful and I invest my heart into the work that I do.

You will see me tear up with you, and you will see my shared grief at the systems and people that have caused you harm.

My goal is that you will feel cared for and respected in our work together.  If that goal is not met, I also invite the discussion about our theraputic relationship, so you can feel cared for in the way that you need.

I bring my values of authenticity, kindness, and genuine curiosity to every session.
