About Jennifer da Silva (She/Her)

Jennifer “Jenn” da Silva is a dedicated mental health professional who provides individual therapy to adults across Oregon. Her approach is collaborative, compassionate, and clinically grounded, with an emphasis on helping clients better understand their internal experiences, develop practical skills, and create meaningful changes that align with their values and goals.

Jenn specializes in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, ADHD, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). She particularly enjoys helping clients understand and navigate patterns involving worry, intrusive thoughts, rumination, avoidance, executive functioning difficulties, and emotional overwhelm that can interfere with daily functioning and quality of life.

Her therapeutic approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and neuroscience-informed psychoeducation. Jenn helps clients develop a greater understanding of how thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and nervous system responses interact while building practical skills to increase psychological flexibility and respond more effectively to difficult internal experiences.

Jenn is passionate about providing affirming and inclusive care for each individual. Her practice emphasizes collaboration, curiosity, autonomy, and respect for each client’s individual experiences, strengths, and values.

Outside of her clinical work, Jenn enjoys spending time in nature, cooking, painting, and drawing. She values creativity, connection, and finding meaningful ways to slow down and engage with the world around her.

Jennifer sees my daughter and she has been great with her. She does not just listen, she participates in the conversation, even saying things that may not be easy for us as parents to hear but are important in my daughter's treatment.
