Jennifer Evans is a Brain Coach and a Licensed Professional Counselor, Art Therapist, and Traumatologist with over 17 years of experience. She was born and raised in Florida, did her undergraduate at Florida State University and moved to Virginia to attend Eastern Virginia Medical School, where she studied clinical counseling and received a Master’s of Science in Art Therapy. As a military spouse, she relocated many times and found herself redeveloping her career at each duty station. This gave her a myriad of experience with various populations and personal insight on how difficult it can be to start over or find your place with so many unknowns surrounding you. 

Her  goal as a brain coach and mental health professional is to help you overcome the barriers to your potential. Through therapeutic coaching support and counseling,  She is able to help empower you to make the changes you've always wanted to make in your life. She has developed a neuroscience-based framework to make proven lasting changes by re-wire your brain into a positive flow state. This framework is taught and used throughout her coaching practice.

Hi, I’m Emma von Holten, and I hold a Master of Science in Psychology from the University of North Florida. I’m passionate about bridging research and real life, especially when it comes to tools that support mental wellness and lifelong learning.

My background includes in-depth experience in behavioral neuroscience and psychophysiology research labs, where I worked with physiological measures to explore the body’s response to stress and trauma. I’ve also led and trained teams in conducting research, and I’ve spent countless hours reading and applying scientific literature.



Through my work with Empowering Wellness Counseling, I’m focused on making neuroscience-based frameworks accessible. Whether it’s through coaching, presentations, or educational resources, I aim to share practical skills that help you feel more supported on your mental health journey, no matter what state of change you're in.
