Jenifer Trivelli, M.S.

Founder, Educator, Author/Writer

Since she was young, Jenifer has been interested in how people get wired to do the things they do, and what guides them towards well-being. 

That curiosity (and many chance happenings) led her to a graduate degree in counseling and completed training in yoga certification programs for youth and adults. Jenifer holds additional certifications as a Qi Gong facilitator and certified Trauma Sensitive HeartMath Practitioner. Since 2007, she has educated parents and professionals, facilitated classes and summer camps for youth, and been contracted as a behavior consultant in schools and nonprofits - both public and private. 

A social-emotional educator at heart, she offers her blend of neuroscience, attachment theory, and bottom-up resilience-informed practices for emotional wellness to educators and organizations that serve children. 

In 2014, Jenifer authored her first book for kids, Peanut and the BIG Feelings. Jamie's Gift: A Young Teen's Guide to Fears, Worries, and Other Life Challenges (Like Being Irritated By Other People) soon followed; a collaborative project with a local teen. From 2016-2019, she wrote in Wise Parent, a column inspired by her work in a local family magazineIn 2019 she developed a resiliency curriculum for adolescents called TIME:IN.

In recent years, Jenifer has presented her unique blend of tools for youth at virtual conferences with international audiences - namely the Embodiment Conference in 2020 and most recently the Somatic Experiencing International Annual Conference in 2021.

“What is offered by WiseMind is not merely useful, it is truly essential. What has struck me most about Jenifer is her ability as an expert to offer such accessible and versatile services from a place of deep compassion and connectedness. I have gleaned incredible knowledge and insight that is applicable to my personal, parenting and professional life by working with WiseMind. The education is deeply informed by research in neuroscience and trauma-sensitive practices. The unique combination of both youth and adult education is what makes WiseMind Ed so aligned to the needs of our times.”

Shea Watkins, parent, K-12 bilingual classroom teacher and instructional mentor

“In this chaotic world filled with so much knowledge to guide us on this parenting journey, Jenifer Trivelli offers us a quiet, gentle, soft space to practice the truest sense of growing a small human: connection. With her ability to dissect the complicated world of neurobiology, parenting, and yoga and bring it to us in this warmly digestible practice; it has created the perfect platform to become our best selves while growing and encouraging our littles to be theirs.”

Jill Snell

“Working with Jenifer Trivelli is a treat! Jenifer has a way of taking the complex topic of social emotional health and making it not only understandable but offering real and helpful strategies that anyone – young or old - can easily utilize. She is thoughtful and intentional in how she approaches workshops and one on one meetings so that they best meet the need. Jenifer has facilitated trainings for our community childcare providers on several occasions and been a consultant offering coaching and technical assistance to providers supporting children. In addition, she has assisted in delivering training to families offering skills and ideas on developing social emotional skills.”

Lisa Harnisch, Executive Director Marion & Polk Early Learning Hub

“When I learned about Jenifer and the incredible work she was doing using neuroscience and yoga with the youth in our community, I knew I wanted her on our highly skilled instructional team. We have 21st century learners living in a 21st century world, and they need skills and tools to help them navigate it all - heads connected to hearts. We are so thankful for her contribution to our little community.”

Karen Litvin, Founder and Director of Silverleaf School

“We are so thankful to have learned alongside Jenifer and WiseMind Ed for five years now. Her warm, quiet, and grounded presence filters down into everything she offers, and has provided the needed balance for my 10 year-old. Learning coping mechanisms and skills for navigating her big feelings has been huge, particularly in navigating relationships with siblings, peers, and other adults who have temperaments that aren’t so soft and gentle. It‘s been such a relief as I have transitioned to working outside our home and pursuing my hiking/self-care goals. The space Jenifer creates using mindfulness, art, and other accessible methods of exploring one’s inner landscape has increased my daughters’ self-confidence and self-love, which, of course for me, is an invaluable gift.”

Lisa Ryan

“Jenifer is such a thoughtful, kind, patient person that my son quickly came to trust and respect, and her blend of neuroscience and mind/body tools helped him become much better at expressing his emotions, handling stressful situations, and speaking up when he needs help.”

Katrina K

“I admire Jenifer Trivelli’s respect for tiny humans. Her dedication to finding the root cause of behavior and the way she helps guide children through these behaviors cemented our bond.”
