Welcome to Way of Wonder
Hello! I’m Jennifer, founder of Way of Wonder, LLC, an endeavor I created to live and work with greater intention, creativity, and heart. I’m a trained visual artist, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and a creative generalist who thrives at the intersection of people, process, and purpose. With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field - and three company mergers - my journey has taken me from direct clinical care and supervision roles to leadership in quality assurance, compliance, and systems improvement. Change is the name of my game and I've come to embrace it!
I love helping others do their best work and finding their spark for insight, connection, and change.
Outside of Way of Wonder and my career in quality management, I enjoy spending time in nature with my husband and son. My favorite mindfulness activity to do in nature is forest bathing - a Japanese tradition which helps me to slow down and connect with my senses and the beauty of nature.
I am a lifelong learner and recently took up studying French language which has led me to get involved with my community. Despite my lack of proficiency, I took my learner's mind and I started an afterschool "French Club" at my son's school. This has not only helped students to make new friends and discover an interesting hobby, it's added community and sense of belonging for some.
What fulfills me most is finding joy in simple moments, engaging in meaningful conversations, and the ongoing adventure of learning and growing.
Mission
Way of Wonder exists to inspire personal and organizational transformation through creative, intentional experiences. By blending clinical insight, artistic expression, and systems thinking, I support individuals and organizations in cultivating clarity, connection, and meaningful progress—always with curiosity, compassion, and a deep respect for the human journey. I believe that our best work—and our deepest growth—comes from collaboration, curiosity, and a belief in human potential. I also believe that systems can and should work better for the people they’re meant to serve. These values guide every aspect of my work, from one-on-one mentorship to organizational consultation and group facilitation.

Professional Mentorship & Coaching
MENTORSHIP & COACHING FOR GROWTH MINDSET
I support emerging supervisors, managers, and directors through personalized coaching and mentorship that builds confidence, leadership skills, and clarity of purpose. My goal is to help you move forward with confidence, creativity, and a renewed sense of purpose—whether you're navigating change, developing leadership capacity, or simply seeking space to reflect and grow.
TESTIMONIALS
Recently I worked with a Manager, new to their role and navigating program development challenges. What started out as ambivalence, the time dedicated to mentoring sessions turned out to be a transformative experience.
"When I first signed up, I worried that it was "just another thing" I was overcommitting to. I could not have been more wrong. It is clear I was committing to just the right thing at just the right time. Your guidance, suggestions and encouragement have been so important to me during the last few months. You have changed the way I approach problem solving and tackling new ideas and projects. You have built my confidence as an advocate, leader, and just as a person. You have approached our mentorship with humor, kindness, thoughtfulness and understanding. With gratitude"
- Sarah, Harm Reduction Manager
Consultation & Thought Partnership
PARTNERING FOR PROGRESS
For organizations, programs, projects, or teams facing stuck points, I offer strategic consultation to help clarify direction, improve systems, and foster meaningful change.
CURRENT PROJECTS
Way of Wonder recently engaged with a business owner and operator of a horse facility where Equine Facilitated Services are provided with focus on experiential coaching for organizations, businesses, personal development, and educational institutions. The owner seeks to bring program evaluations - "facts and figures"- to demonstrate the impact of Equine Facilitated Learning with participants.
Way of Wonder provided assistance with researching various tools and surveys suited to collect the experiences of the individuals served by the program. The initial consultation was very productive and now this outcomes project will move into testing phase. The program does phenomenal work with individuals and groups and I couldn't be more pleased to contribute to the program's mission.
Wellness Workshops & Retreats
INTENTIONAL EXPERIENCES FOR INSPIRED LIVING
I design and facilitate immersive group experiences focused on mindfulness, self-discovery, and creative wellness where individuals reconnect with themselves and each other in meaningful ways. Events can be co-designed and tailored to meet your interests.
TESTIMONIALS
Way of Wonder facilitated a private event with friends where they enjoyed making vision boards together, reflecting on each of their intentions for the new year. This gathering introduced the participants to the uses of vision boards and provided time for mindfulness meditation, journaling, and of course time to make personalized vision boards using magazine images and words. The results were amazing, but it was the process of mindfulness that really made a lasting impact.
A participant had this to share about her experience -
"I'm so delighted with what I discovered about myself yesterday! This was really helpful to narrow down what is truly important to me. On the surface, it's a fun activity, easy to do. But when I think of how intent we all were in creating something that really showed who we are and what we envision for ourselves, it's clear that it is much more than a fun activity." - Joanne, Visual Artist
