Welcome to Ebb and Flow Counseling
Hello, I’m Jennifer Stowers, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I have specialized training in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International and work with individuals who have experienced trauma across the lifespan. This includes birth trauma, medical trauma, childhood experiences, and relational wounds that can resurface during pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood.
Pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood can be deeply meaningful—and also unexpectedly overwhelming. This season of life can stir up emotions you didn’t anticipate, especially if you’ve experienced trauma, loss, or distressing experiences in the past. You may find yourself feeling anxious or on edge, disconnected from your body, emotionally shut down, or unsure why certain moments feel so hard.
You might be carrying the weight of birth trauma, medical experiences, childhood wounds, or losses that resurface during pregnancy or after birth. These responses are not signs of failure. They are signals from your nervous system that it’s seeking care, understanding, and support.
I commonly support individuals navigating:
Pregnancy and postpartum mood disorders, including anxiety and depression
Postpartum OCD and intrusive thoughts
Birth trauma and traumatic medical experiences
Childhood, relational, or developmental trauma
Pregnancy loss, infertility, and grief
Feeling triggered, overwhelmed, or emotionally disconnected during parenthood and other periods of life
I believe therapy is most healing when you feel seen, heard, and safe. My approach is gentle, collaborative, and tailored to your unique experiences. Together, we move at a pace that feels right for you—exploring what matters most, while building tools to help you feel more grounded, connected, and confident in yourself.
I integrate trauma-informed and perinatal-focused approaches to support healing through life transitions, always guided by curiosity, compassion, and respect for your boundaries. Therapy is a space where your feelings are valid, your story is honored, and your growth unfolds in a way that supports who you are and where you are in this season of life.
I am also a Qualified Supervisor (QS) for Registered Mental Health Counselor Interns in Florida.
