MY STORY

Hi, my name is Jenita Pace.

If you are reading my page, then perhaps you are looking for support for yourself or someone you care about. My passion is to come alongside and offer hope and a space for healing to people who are in search of it.

I am an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with the state of Minnesota and am a member of the National Board of Certified Counselors. I have a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Columbia International University (2004) and an M.A. Ed in School Counseling from Western Carolina University (2013).

I spent many years working with youth, especially pre-teen and teenagers. I have worked with a variety of people in all different age groups, with various needs. I specialize in depression and anxiety based on my personal experiences with it (as seen in the video).

There are many approaches to counseling. I don’t adhere strictly to just one theory. I prefer to tailor my approach to fit each person’s personality and needs. For some of my younger clients, doing an activity together, like a puzzle or coloring, is helpful in taking the intensity out of counseling.

Because of my faith, I do pray faithfully for each person I serve.

My hobbies include horseback riding, playing piano, working escape rooms, and playing games. I am married to a guy I met in Bible college and have two sons, one who is in high school and the other in college.

We all have a story that is very personal and is our own. I would be honored to meet with you and have a chance to hear yours.
