About Winzetta
Winzetta "Wendy" Jenkins is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with workplace issues, coping with life changes, and aging or caregiver stress. Wendy practices in Tennessee and offers help in English.
Wendy uses straightforward, collaborative methods in sessions. She leans on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her approach for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide short-term goals and practical steps. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past hurt needs careful attention.
Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on what the person says matters most and on steps they can try between meetings. Conversations aim to build skills for coping, managing stress, and improving relationships at work and home.
Wendy brings ten years of experience as an LCSW in settings that included work with older adults, people facing homelessness, and survivors of intimate partner violence and human trafficking. That background informs how she notices safety, practical needs, and strengths when planning care.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Costs vary with location and the practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's priorities first and focuses on listening and empathy; online sessions let that conversation continue wherever it fits into someone’s routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and practicing alternatives; it often pairs well with short exercises a person can try between meetings to track progress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Wendy will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then tailor methods over time. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize practical steps, motivational coaching, or trauma-focused care.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session options before booking. This profile does not list specific formats, so checking available session types is important. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities, avoid travel time, and use short check-ins when a full session is not possible. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and talk therapy to remote sessions so people keep moving toward their goals without interrupting daily life.
