Jennifer Ruef LCPC

I treat children and adolescents with OCD using Exposure Response Prevention, Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I work with their parents using Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions. I use Habit Reversal Training to treat skin picking and hair pulling. My entire practice is dedicated to treating children and adolescents with anxiety, OCD, Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors, and Fear-Based Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder.

I’ve been treating OCD for 3 years. I am trained in ERP, ICBT, Habit Reversal Training, and Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions for which I’m currently under-going certification. I am also trained in Family Based Therapy for ARFID and SPACE for ARFID.

At KidWise Counseling, we are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all children and families. We proudly support and serve multicultural populations and value the rich diversity of experiences, cultures, and backgrounds that each child and family brings. We are also LGBTQ affirming, offering non-judgmental care that respects and celebrates every child’s gender identity, expression, and family structure.
