About Jen Lescher, LCSW/LICSW

 I began working in mental health over nineteen years ago when I worked with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault at a local nonprofit near my college during my undergraduate years. Since getting my master's degree in 2012 I have worked with children and families struggling with mental health needs in residential psychiatric settings, adults coping with a variety of mental health diagnosis in community mental health settings, veterans dealing with military trauma and housing issues at the Veterans Affairs, children and adults at the end of life due to terminal illness in medical hospital settings, and I have worked with many other complex issues making me a well- rounded clinician. I have also trained under several different OCD experts and received certification in ERP for the treatment of OCD from the Cognitive Behavioral Institute. In addition, I have done course work at the CG Jung Institute of Chicago and studied attachment theory and how attachment presents in romantic lives of adults. As well as being a licensed psychotherapist I am also a trained yoga instructor, I have spent many years participating in different meditation courses, and I have attended a variety of spiritual seminars and retreats to deepen my own healing work. I bring all these experiences to my therapy practice. 

​

When I am not working or studying I can be found working on my other passion, film photography, checking out live music, or traveling whenever I can. 

I would love to help you on your journey towards healing and look forward to speaking with you!
