Jennifer Thibodeaux
Introduction
Dr. Thibodeaux is a licensed psychologist with over 10 years of clinical experience who can provide therapy and assessment services, including pre-surgical evaluations for bariatric procedures and spinal cord stimulator procedures. Her clinical specialties include assisting individuals with chronic conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular problems, chronic pain, cancer, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and trauma. Currently, she is contracted with HCA Florida Transplant Specialists to conduct psychological evaluations required for transplant. She received her undergraduate degree at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and her doctoral degree at Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, Louisiana. She completed her pre-doctoral residency at VA Pacific Islands Healthcare in Honolulu, HI and acquired certification in Cognitive Processing Therapy. She completed her post-doctoral health psychology fellowship at James A. Haley VA in Tampa, FL. Her therapy style is collaborative in nature and involves introducing individuals to specific skills that empower them to meet their treatment goals. Skill sets that can be acquired include understanding your emotions and what drives them, identifying unmet needs and how to address them, and behavioral strategies to help boost mood and aid in relaxation. Savvy, my trusted sidekick, also accompanies me to work. However, if you would prefer that she not attend in-person sessions, I can give her the hour off.
