Winzetta "Wendy" Jenkins is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and life changes. Wendy presents a calm, caring presence that aims to make early steps feel manageable.

Wendy draws on a client-centered style that keeps the person’s goals in view. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and practical steps to change it. Solution-focused methods help set short-term goals and build momentum toward everyday improvements.

Her background includes a decade as a licensed clinician in Tennessee. That experience adds familiarity with workplace stress, caregiver strain, body image concerns, and issues that come with aging. She has also worked with people affected by domestic violence and post-traumatic stress.

In sessions, Wendy prioritizes listening and collaboration. She aims to meet each person where they are and help them name small, useful changes. Conversations are paced to the client’s needs rather than a preset agenda.

People who choose Wendy typically want clear steps they can try between meetings. She balances practical skills-building with space to process emotions. This combination is intended to help people feel steadier and more able to handle daily life challenges.

How Wendy Uses Common Approaches Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and supports each person in deciding the next steps. This approach fits concerns like low self-esteem, life changes, and relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is practical and skill-oriented, and it often includes small exercises to practice between meetings for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. It uses curious, nonjudgmental questions to clarify what matters most and to build motivation for next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods seem most useful based on their goals and preferences. This is a shared process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Confirm current session format options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on a workday. It also can help people try tools and homework in real time and bring those experiences back to sessions for discussion.
