ABOUT JENNIFER

Jennifer Chatham is a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist under the supervision of Claudia Lewis, LMFT. She has experience supporting clients at Maple Counseling and Antioch Community Therapy Services, working with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and complex family dynamics.

Prior to becoming a therapist, Jennifer spent over twenty years working as a television producer in both the UK and the United States, including at the BBC and across various U.S. television networks. Her background in fast-paced creative and high-performance environments gives her a nuanced understanding of stress, burnout, identity transitions, interpersonal dynamics, and the pressures that can accompany ambitious professional lives. She particularly enjoys working with adults navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, creative careers, and questions around identity and purpose.

Jennifer holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles and is currently completing her EMDR training. She draws from psychodynamic, narrative, and trauma-informed approaches, integrating insight-oriented work with practical tools to help clients better understand themselves, process difficult experiences, and create lasting change.

Jennifer’s therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and engaging. She brings a nuanced understanding of the complexities of modern family life, parenting, relationships, and identity development. Jennifer enjoys helping clients recognize and shift long-standing patterns, navigate complex relationships, strengthen their sense of self, and build more connected and authentic lives.
