Jennifer Wallenstein

Executive Director

HI! My name is Jennifer Wallenstein, and I am the Executive Director of PADC. If you are wondering
about my big smile in the picture, it is because I have been free from my active addiction since July 23,
2009. As a person in recovery, I am passionate about helping others who struggle with substance abuse
and addiction. I love the feeling of making a positive difference in people’s lives. I have been an
employee at PADC since 2013. I started as a part time counselor and moved my way up to becoming the
owner in 2020. I have an Associates Degree in Alcohol and Drug Counseling and a Bachelor’s Degree in
Human Development. I am a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor II and a National Certified Addiction
Counselor I.  I use evidence-based practices including CBT, MI, and person focused therapy. We provide
individualized counseling because we know not every person has the same issues. If you like small group
sizes and a non-judgmental place to be all you need to do is call PADC!

When not at work, I enjoy gardening, reading and spending time with my family and our 100+ pound
Rottweiler.
