About Me

Jalena Green holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Agnes Scott College and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Touro College. Her decision to pursue the counseling profession stems from a deep appreciation for its capacity to support healing, resilience, and personal transformation. As a person-centered clinician, she is committed to creating a warm, safe, and affirming therapeutic environment where clients feel understood, valued, and respected. Her counseling philosophy is grounded in empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard, and she views therapy as a collaborative partnership in which clients and clinicians work together to identify strengths, enhance insight, navigate barriers, and develop meaningful and personalized coping strategies.

Jalena has experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, emotional regulation difficulties, life transitions, stress, relationship and family challenges, self-esteem concerns, identity development, and trauma-related symptoms. She integrates multiple evidence-based approaches, including Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Adlerian principles, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Play Therapy techniques, expressive and creative interventions, and Strengths-Based and Solution-Focused methods. Whether working with children, adolescents, or adults, her approach is developmentally appropriate, culturally responsive, and grounded in the belief that every person possesses the inner capacity for growth, healing, and positive change.
