Every Journey Begins
with a Single Step.

Life’s journey is full of twists and turns.

The path ahead may not always be clear, but with the right steps, you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Feeling Stuck on the Path?

You know you want something different, but no matter how hard you try, you keep finding yourself in the same place. The path ahead feels unclear, and you’re not sure what steps to take.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • You second-guess yourself constantly, doubting your decisions and abilities.

  • Fear and anxiety keep holding you back from the life you truly want.

  • You’re stuck in the same patterns - whether in relationships, career, or self-care.

  • No matter what you try, weight loss feels like an endless cycle of ups and downs.

  • You pour your energy into others but struggle to prioritize yourself.

There is a way forward.

The road may feel overwhelming now, but you don’t have to walk it alone. Step by step, you can find clarity, build confidence, and create lasting change. The journey begins with a single step.

When you get lost in the forest and do not know what path to take, I will help you find a new path.

The Journey
Follow the Path to a New Beginning

Just like the Yellow Brick Road, your path is unique. Along the way, you’ll encounter crossroads, challenges, and moments of clarity. Here’s how the journey unfolds:

  • Step 1: Determining Your Direction

    Where are you now, and where do you want to go? This is the moment to reflect, get clear on what matters, and set your course.

  • Step 2: Taking the First Steps

    Change happens one step at a time. With a strong foundation, you begin to move forward - building confidence, momentum, and resilience.

  • Step 3: Navigating Detours

    Obstacles and doubts will arise. When the road gets rocky, it’s about adjusting, learning, and continuing forward with newfound insight.

  • Step 4: Staying Committed to Growth

    Transformation is not a destination - it’s an ongoing journey. The key is to keep moving forward, embracing each step with trust and courage.

Your journey is yours to walk, but you don’t have to do it alone. With the right support, guidance, and mindset, each step becomes clearer.

Are you ready to take that first step?

Meet Jennifer

Here with you every step of the journey

When life feels like an endless loop of self-doubt, anxiety, or setbacks, it’s easy to lose sight of where you want to go. That’s where I come in.

As a Certified Life Coach and Clinical Social Worker, I offer two distinct pathways to support you on your journey toward growth, healing, and lasting change. Whether you’re struggling with relationships, anxiety, weight loss, or self-worth, my approach isn’t about dwelling on the past - it’s about helping you break free from what’s holding you back and take real steps toward change.

No matter where you are right now, you don’t have to walk this path alone.

  • “Jennifer taught me the skills to gain the self-confidence needed to reach my life goals. It is evident that she was as invested in achieving these goals as I was. She truly cares about you as a person and in helping you to progress towards your goals, I wish I had met her earlier in life! Thank you Jennifer for making a difference in my life.”

    - P. HARRELSON, A NEW PATH INDIVIDUAL CLIENT

  • "Jennifer, thank you for all of the help that you have given me and so many others over the past few years. I am very appreciative for the counseling and advice that you shared with me after the passing of my father. It continues to comfort me knowing that I have you to be there when I need someone to speak with about my personal situations. You have always been very professional and your kindness is amazing."

    JAY S, A NEW PATH INDIVIDUAL CLIENT

  • Ms. Jennifer Shafran has been my life coach for over a year. She is a remarkable human being. She has guided me in a path to help navigate my life as an elderly person. My life has changed drastically in the past few years. She was able to set goals for me in steps to help me deal with my anxiety and worries. Without Jennifer’s guidance, I do not think I would have been able to manage and I thank her for all that she has done for me.

    - SHARON B, A NEW PATH INDIVIDUAL CLIENT

  • I decided to work with Ms. Shafran because of her training as both a professional life coach and therapist. While her warm demeanor makes her easy to talk to, she also has expertise in cutting edge therapies. Working with Ms. Shafran was a positive and productive time in my life. I was going through a difficult time but was able to get through staying positive, and making progress in all areas.

    - ANGELA P, A NEW PATH INDIVIDUAL CLIENT

  • "My satisfaction with Jennifer makes me want to clone her and have her with me at all times. Even though we don't even live in the same city, Jennifer has been helping me traverse some of the most difficult situations in my life. Without her clarity and compassion, I don't believe I would have been able to cope with a very difficult and ongoing situation which at times seems insurmountable. I would strongly recommend her to help you with life's twists and turns."
