About Little Seed Counseling
My name is Jena Plummer and I help folks who are struggling with addiction, grief and trauma get out of their own way.
As a counselor, I provide structure, goal setting and deep emotional work. I work with trauma because I have experienced trauma. I work with addiction because it has ripped its way through my family system. I work with infertility because I have personal experience with IVF, loss and third party reproduction. I work with grief because I have experienced pain that is so, so deep and I know how it feels to adjust after loss. I am not a run-of-the-mill general counselor. I can certainly work with depression or anxiety, but I am sought out for my specialty work. As it turns out, many of the folks who see me for anxiety or depression wind up sharing that the roots of their current feelings stem from a history of addiction, trauma or grief as well.
As a person, I show up to my office with an understanding of my own humanness. I have my own counselor because I believe in the value (and sometimes magic) of counseling. I find healing in artwork, writing, music, and creating. I named my child after a Phish song. I don't eat meat. I reload the dishwasher after my family loads it up the first time. I am desperately imperfect and I want to help you embrace that part of yourself, too.
As a professional, I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate, a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist- Individual and a bunch of other titles that mean I've studied a lot and put some time and effort into my passion. I know that the "alphabet soup" isn't all that meaningful to most. More importantly, throughout my career I have learned how to walk along side my clients, trudging through shame, grief and trauma -- identifying self-defeating behaviors along the way.
I specialize in trauma-informed therapy. I take an eclectic approach using motivational interviewing, inner child work, EMDR and the Gottman Method (with couples and families). My specialties include: addiction/codependency, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, and infertility.
You didn't come to this page because everything is going well in your life. Let me help you navigate the things you are struggling with.

the significance of "little seed"Life is a lot like gardening. No matter how intentional we are about keeping things neat and tidy, it gets messy sometimes! Like gardeners, we are tasked with carefully tending to seeds of possibility with self-compassion, nurture and patience. We don't often see the fruits of our labor right away; however steady and consistent attention creates beautiful blooms.
I am passionate about fostering a safe, inviting space to talk about your own "little seeds"- the things you've always wanted to experience that haven't felt within reach. I want to help you embrace the mess, learn from it and clean up what you no longer have use for. I am trained in a variety of different therapeutic techniques to walk with you through the pain, grief, shame and trauma, identifying and breaking down obstacles to living the life you have been missing out on. |
