Jen Packard, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified EMDR Therapy clinician dedicated to supporting individuals and families on their journey toward well-being. Life presents various challenges, and seeking support is a courageous step. Whether you’re dealing with trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties, I’m here to provide a compassionate and safe space tailored to your unique needs. I have been providing mental health therapy for children, adolescents, and adults in the Atlanta area since 2009.
​
My therapy practice is rooted in the paradigms of attachment, interpersonal neurobiology, and mindfulness-based psychotherapy. I believe in the healing power of laughter, playfulness, movement, and the expressive arts. I specialize in working with youth, families, and systems impacted by trauma, particularly complex developmental trauma, and complex PTSD. I integrate principles of trauma-informed care into all services, ensuring a focus on safety, trust, collaboration, empowerment, and cultural sensitivity.
​
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, but I’m here to make the process as welcoming as possible. Reach out via phone at 678-871-6296 or email at jenpackard@jjppsychotherapy.com. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you on your path toward healing and growth.

The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
​​
​
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
​​
​
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.​
​
​
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
​​
​
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.​​
