She/Her Why
Welcome to my online compassion focused consultation and private practice serving individuals and couples who live in Washington, DC and within the province of Ontario, Canada. I offer an evidence-based approach designed to increase feelings of trust, good will and connection.
Individuals and couples often reach out to me because they are feeling stressed, anxious or worried within themselves or in relationships with friends, significant others and family.
With more than 25 years of clinical experience, I see a common denominator with the people I work with: They are all just too hard on themselves. This may be difficult to believe because we live in such a ‘push through the pain’ society but research bears this out.
My goal is to meet you where you are with an artful blend of compassion, support and sound science as our base. As we move through our work together you will learn new strategies and also find that you can experience laughter, joy and a sense of peace in who you are despite the obstacles you may be facing.

In addition to my counseling and and consultation private practice, I am also a writer, editor & community builder. In 2008, I launched a group for mental health providers in the Greater Washington, DC area called DCTherapistConnect (DCTC). My inspiration for the group came during my search for a community of support while balancing the everyday demands of parenting while nurturing my private practice. DCTC has evolved over the years and I am proud of the connections it continues to offer members.
I value gender, sexual, racial, class, disability and religious/spiritual identity. We are all doing the best we can and that sometimes we just need a little help. Let’s talk about how I can help you. Just call/text me at 514-386-9921 or email me at JKogan@Jennifer Kogan.com. You can also contact me here. If you are in need of a referral, I am very happy to connect you to the resources you need.
