Jenny Potzler, MFT

I recently made a decision to try EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing). I had been given a referral to see Jenny Poltzer by a good friend of mine who is also a therapist and author Karla Downing. I have done therapy before and didn’t feel this procedure would be helpful. I experienced a tragic loss of my son to suicide 10 years ago he was 20 years old at the time. I have another son who is struggling with addictions and recently was incarcerated. I was feeling tremendous anxiety and depression. Even though I was functional with my day to day activities I wasn’t able to find Joy in life. It was like I was going through the motions and trying to hold off the depression. It was like a dark cloud of sadness following me around. I worked with Jenny on the traumatic events that were holding me captive. EMDR has completely changed my life. I am now centered and the dark cloud is no longer there. My beliefs are now positive and I no longer am living with fear of the impending doom. I highly recommend this process in healing your brokenness. I am free from depression and more able to problem solve and I have a more positive outlook on my future. Jenny is experienced in this method and she is the most caring therapist. I felt so comfortable in her presence and found healing and peace through her counseling. Give it a try and if you don’t fit in with Jenny she will recommend someone for you. She just wants the best for you and has no selfish motives in the work she does. It’s all about you just like her website says.

I sometimes hesitate to recommend people or services to others because if they are not happy with the end result I don’t want to feel responsible for the referral. With that being said, I am so confident in the person and therapist that Jenny is, it is without reservation that I would strongly recommend her as a therapist.
Jenny’s ability to listen with compassion alone in itself is what I appreciate most about her. She truly understands my pain and connects with me no matter where I am at making me feel like I am not alone. This is something that I’ve never experienced before. She allows me the freedom to say how I am feeling and at the same time, I know that she is not going to judge me. More than anything, I appreciate Jenny’s patience when I can’t find the words to articulate what I am feeling inside. She gently encourages me to stick with what I am trying to say and eventually I am able to find my words and express my thoughts.
My childhood has haunted me for so many years. I was terrified that others would think differently of me if they knew about my life or the things that happened to me. I didn’t trust anyone… I didn’t know how to let others in to my world or heart… and then one day I met Jenny… my life has been forever changed and forever I will be grateful!

Reading the long and rambling review on this therapist posted on 10/​9, I can read through the lines and see that this person has a long-​standing grudge. Readers should know the Board of Behavioral Sciences checks out complaints rigorously and would not re-​issue this therapist’s license if they felt it was a legitimate case.

A good therapist. Makes you feel comfortable, non-​threatening. Very professional and experienced in helping me with issues I’ve struggled with all my life. I’ve had therapists in past who also were good, but Jenny has been able to help me with longstanding issues that always tripped me up. Is very respectful of her clients and does not violate boundaries, but at the same time she is very warm and compassionate.
