My name is Jen Kljajic, I’m a Licensed Psycho therapist specializing in individual, couples and family therapy. Throughout my life, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people from many walks of life and all over the country. For over 20 years, I have helped individuals with the mind-body connection through physical fitness, nutrition, and mindset. My individual work with yoga and reiki shaped my somatic approach to therapy, deepening my awareness of the mind-body connection.

Over the years, I’ve also worked in educational settings, supporting children and parents navigating emotional challenges and learning differences. In addition, I’ve received extensive training in working with medical professionals including physicians, nurses and medical students experiencing stress and burnout as well as helping individuals manage withdrawal symptoms while tapering medications such as psychiatric opioids, and/or benzodiazepines.

Like many others, I’ve experienced my own share of loss, emotional hardship, and life transitions. These experiences don’t define my professional qualifications, but they’ve profoundly informed my capacity to empathize with both emotional and physical suffering.

My passion for this work is grounded in social justice, cultural responsiveness, and ongoing self-reflection. I believe true support requires not only compassion but also a willingness to examine systemic inequities and honor each person’s lived experience as well as learn about the power of our mind and unique abilities to grow and thrive.

I sincerely love my work! I hold a Bachelor and Master’s Degree as well as Clinical Licenses in 16 different states. I live in Michigan and travel often with my husband and two children. I enjoy surfing, gardening and humor.
