I bet life has been loco for you. Me too. I make sense of my history by writing about it. Here is one of my stories….
I meet Angel by the metal payphone outside 7-11. I stroll outside with my breakfast, a giant-sized blueberry Slurpee. It is a sugared oasis from the cod I slice and fry and serve and, after my shift ends, the cod I steal from the food court.

First NH 4000 footer, Mount Pierce. By myself. Taking all my energy and effort and directing it towards me. Standing still, moving forward, taking stock, starting over. My divorce will be finalized within a week, and I am in the unknown wilds - curious and excited.

So I’m back into supporting and volunteering for the YMCA - they do SO MUCH for local kids. Are you into enjoying a day outside in the last days of summer eating and playing co****le??? Social, intermediate, and competitive levels with prizes!! Register, have a good time, and be part of an amazing community organization.

What a gift - if you know yourself well, then you are true to yourself, and THEN you also have someone who loves you for exactly who you are, you’ve won the lottery.

My name is Jenny Cutler Lopez. As a therapist, I offer an integration of different therapeutic modalities to support you in whatever with which you may be struggling. I specialize in Trauma Sensitive Yoga, Core Energetics which is a body-based therapy, and traditional cognitive talk therapy.
If you are interested in possibly setting up a therapeutic relationship, once you reach out to me via Facebook, email, or a phone call, we can set up a time to speak on the phone for free. After that, we can meet at my office for 1.5 hours for an initial consultation. The fee for the initial consultation is $90. Then we will decide together when to schedule your next session. Each regular session is 1 hour and costs $60. Currently, I do not accept insurance.
I work with you as a team towards your goals whether that is building healthier relationships with yourself or others or working towards a reintegration of your mind, body, and spirit. If you would like to heal your underlying trauma, that is also an option for you. You are the expert of your own life so we will walk together towards whatever you would like to accept or change about your life.
So often we want to heal ourselves but we’re not sure how to do so. That knowledge is not gone, you already have all the answers. That knowledge has simply been forgotten or pushed aside. So much of what happens to us as we develop as children affects us psychologically and biologically. Your mind and body are one.
What I offer in a session depends on your needs and your wants. As a traditional cognitive therapist, I am training as a Master of Science Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. Currently in my second Masters internship, I work with people at Boston’s Justice Resource Institute (JRI) Center for Trauma and Embodiment. At JRI, I am using trauma-sensitive yoga to support people to start to feel their bodies again. We also use traditional talk therapy to identify and practice skills to help you in daily life or to begin to process past or current trauma which may be affecting you, your relationships, and your emotional and physical health.
I am also completing a 4 year program in Core Energetics. This style of therapy focuses on the places in your body in which you hold old energy and painful feelings. Human beings are incredibly clever. We figure out early on how to defend ourselves against painful emotions. Often our bodies physically form in ways to help keep these emotions at bay. What you discover as you begin to process these emotions is it if often much more painful long-term to keep defending yourself against these feelings rather than approaching parts of yourself with love and compassion. This work is powerful and transformational.
I am accepting new clients at my office in Lowell on Wednesdays and Thursdays in which you have the choice of using cognitive/talk therapy, body-based therapy, and trauma-sensitive yoga. Please reach out with any questions or to book a session.
