Jen Choi, LPCC
Specializes In:
Jennifer Choi, LPCC, supports individuals through life’s challenges by offering culturally-affirming, personalized care rooted in compassion and respect. Practicing at LifeStance Health, she provides inclusive mental health services to adolescents, adults, and families across California.
Jennifer’s approach integrates evidence-based and somatic therapies, grounded in the belief that healing happens in a safe, trusting environment. She strives to create a therapeutic space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued, and where they can develop the agency to lead meaningful, values-based lives.
Her work is informed by the understanding that personal struggles often stem from disconnection—from the mind, body, self, or community. With a person-centered and integrative lens, Jennifer specializes in supporting individuals experiencing PTSD and trauma-related disorders, eating disorders, anxiety, and depression. She draws on modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients build self-awareness, regulate emotions, and reconnect with their capacity to thrive and grow.
Jennifer also explores how patterns of behavior are influenced by attachment dynamics, sociocultural pressures, and systemic factors, recognizing the broader context of each client’s experience. In addition to her primary areas of focus, she works with individuals navigating a wide range of concerns, including addiction, gender identity exploration, grief and loss, and chronic pain.
Outside the therapy room, Jennifer enjoys drumming, attending live music events, biking, camping, making handcrafted jewelry, and writing. She also loves unwinding with a good issue of The New Yorker. These creative and reflective pursuits mirror the curiosity, openness, and playfulness she brings into her clinical work.
