About Jennifer

Jennifer Peel, LMSW

Jennifer brings 15+ years of experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults to a uniquely grounding setting — her farm in Montrose, MI. Sessions are held outdoors where possible, using the natural environment for reflection, grounding, and emotional regulation.

Clients may optionally incorporate animals — horses, goats, sheep, pigs, and chickens — always at their own comfort level. Teletherapy is available for those throughout Michigan who prefer virtual sessions.

"My approach is informal, client-centered, and grounded in building genuine connection — creating a relaxed, authentic space where clients feel safe to show up as they are."

Who I work with

🧒

Children

Play-based and expressive approaches to help younger clients feel safe, understood, and capable of growth.

🧑

Adolescents

Meeting teens with genuine curiosity and zero judgment through identity, relationships, and mental health.

🧑‍🎓

Young Adults

Practical, insight-driven support for the transition to adulthood. Older adults & couples also welcome on a limited basis.

"If you're looking for a supportive, down-to-earth approach to therapy, I'd be honored to be part of your journey."

— Jennifer Peel, LMSW
