Jennifer also works with those who identify within the LGBTQA+ community by linking them to resources and other community supports. “Nature and nurture collectively form who we are, the self-schemas that make up our self-concepts help us organize and retrieve our experiences; human beings have the ability to make the needed changes for a better quality of life, if we chose.”
