The Full Story
Jena
Licensed Psychotherapist &
Cognitive Identity Mastery Coach
I believe identity is not something we discover once — it is something we consciously design.
For more than 15 years in private practice, I have worked with thousands of individuals navigating growth, transition, reinvention, and expansion. My work bridges clinical precision with deep identity transformation, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Integrative Medicine principles, and my proprietary Cognitive Identity Mastery framework.
I specialize in working with high-functioning adults who are ready to move beyond inherited narratives and step into a more intentional, aligned version of themselves. Together, we explore both the strengths and the friction points within your identity — the patterns that have served you and the ones that quietly limit you.
This is not surface-level self-improvement.
It is structural identity work.
My role is to help you think clearly, see yourself accurately, and consciously author who you are becoming — so your external life reflects internal alignment. When identity shifts at the root, confidence stabilizes, relationships evolve, and success becomes congruent rather than effortful.
Personally, I live what I teach.
I am deeply intentional about the identity I embody. I see myself as both grounded and expansive — a spiritual being having a human experience. My life is designed around what matters most to me: being a mother and partner, immersing myself in the outdoors, traveling, studying, practicing over two decades of Zazen meditation, creating art through painting and culinary expression, writing, and curating meaningful experiences.
My work is not about becoming someone else.
It is about becoming fully conscious of who you choose to be.
If you are ready to approach your growth with both depth and sophistication, I would be honored to work with you.

I curated a program of discovery and change for clients called: Cognitive Identity Mastery. After years of administering psychological tests and results in the private sector and my experience as a corporate psychological consultant administering tests (The Big 5, Berkman Method, +) and interpreting results; identity cultivation proved to be paramount in goal achievement.

Mission
Cognitive Identity Mastery™ empowers high-functioning adults to consciously redesign their identity so their life, leadership, and success align with who they intentionally choose to become.
​
To Expound ~
At Cognitive Identity Mastery™, the mission is to empower high-functioning adults to consciously design the identity that shapes their life, leadership, relationships, and legacy.
I integrate clinical expertise, cognitive science, and intentional self-authorship to help individuals move beyond inherited narratives, unconscious conditioning, and adaptive roles that no longer serve them.
Through precise, elevated identity work, I guide clients to think with clarity, lead with alignment, and embody a self-concept that reflects their highest level of capacity and integrity.
I believe identity is the root architecture of every outcome.
When identity shifts, everything follows.
Vision
The vision of Cognitive Identity Mastery™ is to redefine personal transformation by elevating identity as the foundation of success, wellbeing, and conscious leadership.
We envision a world where high-functioning individuals move beyond unconscious conditioning and inherited narratives to intentionally author who they are becoming — leading families, businesses, and communities from a place of clarity, emotional sovereignty, and aligned power.
Through this work, identity becomes not a reaction to the past, but a deliberate creation of the future.
