Jen Berlingo, MA, LPC, ATR (she/her) is a coach, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, a Nationally Registered Art Therapist, and a master-level Reiki practitioner. She earned her graduate’s degree in transpersonal counseling psychology and art therapy from Naropa University, a Buddhist-oriented school for experiential and contemplative education. For twenty years, she has used coaching, counseling, art psychotherapy, energy work, ritual, and ceremony to support women in becoming their most authentic, sovereign selves. Through her private practice, women’s circles, and online programs, Jen has midwifed hundreds of women through life’s turning points, as they rebirth and reparent themselves into more fully expressed, whole beings. 

While guiding clients through cathartic metamorphoses and quests for true alignment, Jen experienced her own profoundly transformative passage in her forties, where she was able to expand more fully into her queer identity and embrace other seemingly subversive aspects of herself. Jen’s journey inspired her to write Midlife Emergence to accompany other women in traversing the midlife portal. She invites the often inconvenient, raw truth to come forward in service of alchemizing shame into powerful reclamation.  

In addition to her longstanding work as a healing practitioner, Jen is a visual artist who offers original paintings, prints, and oracle decks to collectors worldwide. She exhibits her fluid, abstract art locally in her beloved town of Boulder, Colorado. There, among the sunny foothills, Jen can be found making bottomless bowls of popcorn and snuggling on the couch with her unconventional family, her coven of close friends, and her Norwegian forest tabby rescues, Jinx and Juju.
