Jennifer has managed well-respected treatment programs, relapse prevention and aftercare services. She has also managed harm reduction services and has worked with clients at every stage of their journey and meeting people where “they are at.” Jennifer is also a Clinical “Love First” Interventionist, training with Debra and Jeff Jay at The Betty Ford Clinic, U.S.A. Jennifer is very experienced at working with complex psychological disorders and is a highly qualified therapist.
Jennifer has considerable experience working with high-profile internationally renowned clients and has worked for the last seven years as a senior case manager for The Kusnacht Practice in Switzerland, an exclusive residential provider of addiction and mental health treatment. Jennifer provides quality care to individuals affected by addiction and other co-occurring disorders from the wealth and prominence sector.
Jennifer develops tailor-made bespoke support services for a range of disorders and addictions and has specialist experience in providing relapse-prevention, recovery-based social integration and aftercare. Jennifer recognises that a person needs a lot of help and support after their treatment episode, or a person may be at a later stage but need some extra help to maintain their recovery.
Jennifer also helped develop a community recovery service for people who are both abstinent and non-abstinent. She incorporated a range of services to promote integration into mainstream society through education, vocational training, volunteer work and a range of holistic therapies.
Jennifer’s strong interest for ‘relapse’ led to her masters degree research focussing on “What are the main factors contributing to why abstinent-based recovering drug addicts/alcoholics relapse.” This research resulted in Jennifer implementing a relapse prevention treatment program designed to help people that had developed a pattern of relapse.
Jennifer has extensive experience of working with family members and feels that the family quite often need more support than they are offered. Helping the family as a whole can also help a person maintain their recovery.
