About Jenna Corriveau, MSW
welcome.
Hi. I’m jenna.
I'm a Master's-level Clinical Social Worker, Jai-certified parent coach, and behavioral health specialist based in New Hampshire. I work with parents and families in private practice, and I serve as the behavioral and mental health coordinator at Seacoast Waldorf School — where I support children and families navigating emotional, relational, and developmental challenges every day.
Parenting can feel especially heavy when you’re doing everything you can and still wondering why things feel so hard. Many parents arrive here thoughtful, invested, and trying deeply to do right by their child — yet feeling overwhelmed, confused, or worn down.
My work is grounded in a simple, steady belief: behavior is communication. When we slow down and look beneath it, we almost always find a nervous system doing its best to cope. That's true for children. It's equally true for adults.
I draw on attachment science, nervous system regulation, collaborative problem solving, and the Jai Institute's framework for conscious parenting. I believe repair matters more than perfection, and the relationship between a parent and child is the most powerful intervention available.
Why I do this work
I came to this work through both professional training and lived experience. As an adoptee, I understand something about what it means to navigate identity, attachment, and the complexity of family in ways that don't always fit neatly into a framework. As a parent of three, I am in the trenches with you.
I've seen — personally and professionally — how quickly children are misunderstood, and how often parents are left carrying shame instead of support. I've also seen how much changes when adults have a space to understand their own patterns — not just their child's behavior. That's what I'm here to change.
Not every parent is in crisis
Not every parent who comes to this work is struggling.
Some parents arrive here because they're thoughtful, intentional people who want their inner life to match the parent they're trying to be. They're doing well by most measures — and they sense there's still something to look at. something inherited, something unexamined, something that shows up in the moments that catch them off guard.
That kind of proactive, growth-oriented work is just as welcome here. You don't have to be overwhelmed to benefit from going deeper.
Who I work with
• Adults — particularly parents — seeking individual therapy for their own stress, patterns, burnout, or emotional overwhelm
• Parents of neurodivergent, highly sensitive, or behaviorally complex children who want support that goes deeper than strategies
• Families navigating adoption-related stress, identity, and attachment — I am an adoptee myself and bring both personal and clinical understanding to this work
• Parents seeking community and skill-building through group coaching
• Children ages 2–16 navigating big emotions, school challenges, or relational stress

I’m looking forward to getting to know you and am really glad you found your way here.

An invitation
If you’re here, it’s likely because something inside you is telling you that your family needs support that looks deeper than behavior.
You don’t need to have everything figured out. And you don’t need to do this alone.
