About
Jennifer Silacci

The impact of anxiety, trauma, or an eating disorder can be profound. One of the greatest gifts in my 20+ years of practice has been witnessing individuals heal and reclaim their health, happiness, and wholeness.
​
After I obtained my MSW degree from NYU, I completed postgraduate training in eating disorders and body image issues at the Women's Therapy Centre Institute, and in Trauma Studies at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy. In addition, I completed a three-year training in Somatic Experiencing and went on to become an SE assistant.
Creating a culturally and spiritually sensitive practice has always been important to me. To that end, I’ve completed courses in Judaism, Native American Spirituality, and a two-year program exploring the world’s major faith traditions. These studies have been a true gift, allowing me to better understand and honor my clients' diverse religious and spiritual practices, as well as religious or spiritual traumas that may have occurred.
I have run eating disorder groups for NYU, various nonprofits, as well as within my private practice. I have served as both a lecturer and group case consultant on eating disorders and trauma at postgraduate institutes in New York City.
​
In addition, mentoring, supporting and providing consultation to early career therapists is one of my passions.
​
Today, I work with clients virtually across California, Colorado, and New York, and offer clinical consultation to mental health professionals nationwide.
