Jennifer Wolff, MA, LMFT

In-person therapy at two Chicagoland locations; virtual therapy anywhere in Illinois.

  • How I’d describe myself: kind, curious, focused, compassionate, confident, committed

  • I majored in History and minored in Art History in college and initially wanted to work in a museum or library curating special exhibitions.

  • I volunteered at an animal shelter for five years

  • I adopted an orange tabby rescue cat. He is quirky and lives up to his name, King.

  • I have traveled extensively and love meeting people from different cultures.

  • I took classes in improvisational theater games to overcome social anxiety and build self-confidence through creative exploration.

  • When I was five years old, I was randomly chosen to play the Grand Prize Game live in the studio on The Bozo Show filmed in Chicago.

  • I love Ethiopian food.

  • I completed a century bike ride around Lake Tahoe and surrounding area in support of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

  • I am a lifelong learner and enjoy reading, mostly fiction (for pleasure) and any book, article, poems, essays that inspire me and help me become the best therapist I can be.

  • I find taking long walks near the lake calming and restorative.
