ABOUT JENN KERNS
Jenn Kerns holds a Master’s in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and a Certification in Integrative Medicine for Mental Health. Her post-graduate training includes work with the University of Vermont’s Department of Psychiatry, Middlebury College, Spectrum Youth and Family Services, and extensive clinical supervision after launching her private practice in 2014.
Jenn’s path began as a peak performance athlete, competing at the highest levels of youth sports. She played year-round club soccer from middle school through her senior year, was selected for Massachusetts’ Olympic Development Program each summer, and captained her club, ODP, and high school varsity teams. She was a four-year varsity starter in both soccer and lacrosse at Waltham High School, played Division II collegiate soccer at Saint Michael’s College, and ran the Boston Marathon at age 18. This foundation in leadership, grit, and somatic intelligence laid the groundwork for her lifelong passion: helping others access their fullest potential—mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
Jenn specializes in working with high achievers and visionary leaders—including Olympians, CIA recruits, doctors, attorneys, entrepreneurs, musicians, artists, and community changemakers. Whether navigating transition, healing burnout, or seeking clarity and purpose, her clients are often people others turn to—carrying much, holding vision, and needing a safe, attuned, skillful space to reconnect with themselves.
Since 2006, Jenn has immersed herself in Buddhist meditation traditions—a natural evolution of her pursuit of mental mastery as a high-level athlete. She recognized early on that true resilience and performance arise not just from physical conditioning, but from training the mind and growing through adversity. During college, she lived in a Burmese monastery in Bodh Gaya, India, through Antioch College’s Buddhist Studies program. This transformative time sparked her devotion to positive self-directed change—like neuroplasticity and cognitive reframing—and deepened her understanding of mystical experience and symbolic healing. It also catalyzed years of spiritual awakening and inner work.
Her global travels further expanded her understanding of consciousness and grounded her in a soul-centered worldview. She has since explored the intersections of Jungian and Buddhist psychology, Human Energy Medicine, Integrative Medicine, and brain re-training—while continuing to hone her intuitive gifts with mentors’ guidance.
Professionally, Jenn reimagines traditional approaches to create holistic, integrative, soul-centered methods that transcend conventional coaching and therapy, while remaining grounded in practical, accessible evidence-based interventions. With a natural gift for teaching and speaking, her sessions often feel like soul-igniting workshops, as she dives deeply into clients’ rich inner landscapes.
