I'm glad you're here.

My name is Jenni Akins. I am Licensed Clinical Social Work with over a decade of experience. My work is grounded in the belief that people are inherently resilient — sometimes they just need the right support to reconnect with that strength. I’m not afraid to challenge you when it’s needed, and I’ll be right there alongside you through the process, offering empathy, humor, and encouragement along the way.

I believe healing happens best in a space where people feel seen, safe, and empowered to grow. My approach integrates modalities such as EMDR, DBT, and TF-CBT with the unique and powerful connection offered through Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy. Whether working one-on-one, with families, or in groups, I focus on creating a supportive environment that fosters self-awareness, emotional regulation, and resilience. I partner with my clients to address trauma, strengthen relationships, and cultivate lasting change — blending clinical expertise with the grounding, reflective presence of the horses who join us in the work.
