Our Team

Jen Russell has served the Creekside community since 2006. Jen believes in the “whole child” approach. The family is just as much on the journey as the child. She has extensive training in the fields of group therapy work, trauma-informed care and research-based practices in helping children overcome anxiety and other social emotional challenges. Jen’s certifications include a Licensed School Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC).

Jen’s role includes:

• Helping to handle social or emotional concerns you have about your child.
• Improving parent-child communication.
• Family difficulties or concerns that affect your child at school.
• Referrals for community resources like outside therapy or school based mental health therapy. 
• Understanding the developmental changes of childhood.

Jen’s favorite part of the job is working alongside parents and students, building relationships and watching families grow.
