About Jenny
"I offer an approach to therapy that focuses on the fundamental belief that exploring your history, your values, your perceptions, helps you own your feelings instead of them owning you."
Jenny Pfeiffer's education includes a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and studies in Research Psychology, Divinity, and Journalism. Born and raised in Durban, South Africa, she brings a culturally informed and globally aware perspective to her work.
Jenny specializes in working with couples helping them attain their goals of intimate connection. She works with individuals gathering information to help meet goals and reduce the symptoms that drain hope and connection. Whether you are navigating childhood trauma, wrestling with connecting in your relationships, or trying to communicate in high-conflict relationships such as co-parenting, Jenny can help!
Why Fiercely Connect?
If you’ve been hurt before, are in a relationship crisis, questioning who you are, or carrying grief, this is for you.
I see you: someone whose past keeps arriving at the table of now. Inside you live a small household of voices: a protector that braces you, a wounded child that wants to be soothed, and a cautious watcher that keeps the door closed. In arguments you might shut down or push away; when you try to name yourself, the answer feels foggy; grief makes everything louder.
Fiercely connecting helps us name those voices and the repeating images that steer your reactions so they stop running the show.
We practice simple, steady steps: grounding when you’re triggered, clear boundaries that keep you safe, and honest repair when closeness breaks. The goal is practical tenderness — to help you risk intimacy without losing yourself, grieve without being swallowed by it, and choose who you want to be with clearer, steadier hands.
