Jennifer Rankin Ma LPC

I have found that no two patients are the same. Creating a custom treatment plan for my patients to help them live their best life is where I thrive. My relationship with Mercy has been since I can remember. My father is a urologist, and I can distinctly remember tagging along with him to work, walking into Mercy and feeling a calm serenity.

I had a life-changing illness in high school and spent weeks in the hospital. My doctor built a relationship with me and told me, "You're going to be a doctor." I tell patients that their mental health struggles don't define them and that their treatment will improve their overall health. I enjoy the nexus of medicine and psychiatry. I thinking critically about the interactions between medications, therapy and lifestyle interventions for better outcomes.

I received extra training in perinatal psychiatry in a dedicated women?s clinic. I fell in love with helping mothers through their pregnancy journey and any challenges that come with it. What motivates me is advocating for women and being a voice for them when they?re struggling and scared to speak up. I help them become the best version of themselves without being afraid.
