Our Journey to
You and Your’s

Why we work to understand the root of your feelings and help you grow toward connection, healing, and hope.

WE WANT TO BE

A Safe Space for Everyone

Founded in 2023, Golden Roots Therapy was started by Jenna Hertaus, who wanted to create an environment for therapists to flourish and grow in their practice while helping people with mental health and trauma.

You know yourself or your child best—We are here to help you understand and grow together. We offer an open space for you and/or your child to play and express themself in a way that is freeing.

  • I currently am accepting Self Pay, Optum Network (UBH, UMR, Medica) and Health Partners. Please check with your own insurance company to confirm I am in network with your plan.

    For Self Pay or Out of Network clients:

    I can provide you with a detailed superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement if your plan allows for Out Of Network (OON) coverage. If you are unsure if your insurance provider/plan allows for OON benefits, you can call your insurance provider and ask about behavioral health benefits.
