Learn More About Jennine
Jennine Estes, LMFT, is the owner and supervisor of the Spokane Counseling Hub. After earning her bachelor’s in psychology from Point Loma Nazarene University in 2001 and her master’s in marriage and family therapy from Alliant International University (an offshoot of the California School of Professional Psychology) in 2004, she quickly went to work applying her formal education, thousands of therapy hours, and passion for clinical counseling to scores of individuals, couples, and families throughout her home state of California.
She is certified in EFT, trained in EMDR, and a proponent of solution-focused therapy, as “I’ve seen these empirically based techniques consistently get results, and I truly believe they are the most effective at creating positive, long-term change.” In addition to running her own private practice, she also serves as a mentor and supervisor to multiple Associate Marriage and Family Therapists and Associate Professional Clinical Counselors and she coaches other therapists. A believer in lifelong learning, Jennine takes pride in regularly attending seminars, workshops, and trainings to enhance her skill set with the latest advancements in results-oriented therapy modalities.
In her counseling sessions, Jennine sets a relaxed, collaborative, and empathetic tone. She concentrates on creating a safe, secure, and welcoming atmosphere so that her clients can comfortably work toward safe and secure bonds of their own. Her specialty areas include attachment-based relationship therapy, pre- and post-marital counseling, high-conflict couples, co-parenting solutions, GSRD (Gender, Sexual, and Relationship Diversity), and overcoming trauma.
A resident of both California and Washington, Jennine splits her time between Estes Therapy in San Diego and her newest venture, the Spokane Counseling Hub here in Spokane, where she feels “a sense of community and belonging that beckoned to me.”
My Counseling Style
In my counseling sessions, I take an active and focused approach, tracking key issues and working quickly to get to the root of the problem.
I strive to create an environment where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood, while equipping you with practical tools to enhance your mood, relationships, and overall quality of life. My business background shapes my style—I’m straightforward and direct when needed, offering clarity and transparency throughout the therapeutic process. I make it a point to explain where we are in therapy, why we’re taking specific steps, and what comes next, all grounded in evidence-based theoretical models. Together, we’ll navigate challenges with purpose and precision, fostering meaningful growth and change.
