Our Story:

Jenine, a native of New York City…meets Nicole, a white girl from Hanover County, VA. One of Jenine’s first thoughts “what is this girl wearing?!?” as she meets Nicole interviewing at the hospital Jenine works at. Nicole’s thoughts, “I hope I get this job.” Well good news is, Nicole got the job! Nicole and Jenine worked at the hospital together starting January 2020, during one of the most difficult times to work at a hospital: the COVID PANDEMIC.

Jenine barely had time to train Nicole and one day said, “hey, can you just run group today?” So of course, Nicole said “sure, why not?” Jenine has never had a chance to formally observe Nicole’s group skills, but threw her in anyways. She later admitted that she had all the faith in Nicole. In the trenches of hospital work, Jenine and Nicole worked continuously to keep up the group work for their patients, including Jenine sweeping the floor to make sure they had a clean space as the janitors were hit or miss.

Finally, Nicole explained to Jenine that “we could do this ourselves, but better. We’re doing it anyways.” Jenine was hesitant, but finally realized that Nicole was right (as always ;) and agreed. The next 9 months (while Nicole was pregnant with her baby girl) were spent yelling across the hallway about all the things they were going to do at “their” practice. Eventually, that dreaming turned into a Google Doc, which turned into actual steps towards “their” practice. Realign Your Mind Counseling Services, LLC was born on April 16th, 2021. Through unintentional manifesting and constant discussions, a physical office space came to them! It was a miracle and perfect, it even had the angel number 111! Nicole and Jenine did not realize the significance of that until patients had to explain to them the power behind that number.

Jenine and Nicole took the leap of faith and left the hospital on September 10th, 2021 to go full time with their practice. Since then, they have been busy helping clients through difficult times, processing past trauma, and helping them work towards a better future. Jenine has incorporated EMDR, hypnotherapy, and sound healing to her tool box; while Nicole focuses on hypnotherapy and sound healing.

Jenine and Nicole look forward to helping you on your healing journey!
