Jen Ottman Psychotherapy

College can feel like a constant pressure to keep it all together - getting the grades, figuring out your future, staying connected, becoming independent. It’s easy to go on autopilot and miss the internal stuff that’s weighing you down. Our work together is a chance to pause and step outside of that cycle. You don’t have to figure it all out alone.

I know firsthand how isolating it can feel to seem like you’re doing fine on the outside while struggling internally. My own experiences navigating high-pressure environments, family dynamics, and personal growth have shown me how powerful it can be to have a space for reflection, connection, and honest support. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, burnout, identity questions, or trying to make sense of your relationships, I’m here to meet you where you are and walk with you through it.

My approach is insight-driven and asset-based. This means I focus on helping you understand why you do what you do - not to label it, but to learn from it. Together, we’ll tap into the strengths you already bring to the table, explore how those strengths developed, and work on shifting patterns or behaviors that might be getting in the way now.

I work from a relational and attachment-oriented lens, so the connection we build in therapy is more than just talk, it becomes a space to practice things like vulnerability, setting boundaries, and learning how to get your needs met. The hope is that what happens in therapy can carry over into your day-to-day life - classes, friendships, family, dating, all of it.
