Jennifer Baddour, LCSW

I received a Bachelors Degree in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Upon graduation, I went on to study Social Work through the Masters program at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill with a focus on Children and Families.

I have worked in a variety of settings, all of which have helped me better understand and value the role and purpose of the therapeutic relationship.
