Jennifer Eick-Jakiela, MSW, LCSW is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who graduated with her MSW from University of Kansas School of Social Welfare Edwards Campus in 2007. Since then, Jennifer has worked with a wide range of populations in mental and behavioral health, including providing case management and therapy to children and their parents involved with the child welfare system and services through the state for individuals with developmental disabilities. Most recently, Jennifer has worked at University Health (Truman) providing education, resources and support to Medicaid patients with chronic health conditions, a position she continues to hold. She was given the opportunity to receive EMDR training in 2010, which has since become a passion for Jennifer as a preferred modality for helping clients work through traumatic experiences.
Jennifer sees clients on evenings and weekends at our West Plaza clinic. She is currently accepting self-pay clients, and beginning Spring 2023 will accept United Healthcare and Medicare as well.
