Tene’ Jenkins, LCSW. As a dedicated mental health professional, I employ an integrative approach to therapy, combining elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques to tailor treatment to the unique needs of each client.
My approach
My practice focuses on helping individuals and families navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. By fostering a supportive and empathetic environment, I aim to empower clients to build resilience, enhance self-awareness, and achieve their personal and therapeutic goals.
My focus
I typically work with a diverse range of clients, including individuals, teenagers, and families. My practice focuses on treating conditions such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. I am particularly comfortable working with clients facing stress-related disorders, trauma, and emotional regulation difficulties.
My communication style
In my sessions, I strive to create a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment. Clients often describe the experience of working with me as feeling safe, understood, and supported. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic alliance, ensuring that clients feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions.
My journey to mental healthcare
I was attracted to a career as a therapist by a deep desire to help others navigate life's challenges and achieve personal growth. Witnessing the transformative power of therapy in people's lives inspires and motivates me. My passion for understanding human behavior, combined with a commitment to providing compassionate and effective support, drives me to continue this work. Helping clients find resilience, clarity, and fulfillment in their lives is incredibly rewarding and reinforces my dedication to the field.
My goals for you
My approach is collaborative and client-centered, fostering an atmosphere of trust and openness where clients can explore their concerns and work towards their goals at their own pace. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their challenges and work toward meaningful change.
My first session with you
In the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and open environment where we will begin to build rapport. We will discuss their reasons for seeking therapy, their goals, and any specific concerns they may have. I will ask questions to understand their background and current situation, and together we will start to outline a personalized treatment plan. This initial session is an opportunity for clients to share their story and for us to establish a foundation for our therapeutic work together.
