Do you want to live a happier and healthier life? Talking to an experienced, qualified therapist can help. I treat adults, teens, couples , and families seeking relief from depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, and mood disorders. We all work towards happiness, but we sometimes get stuck in patterns from the past and live in anxiety about the future. You don't have to suffer alone.

As a Clinical Therapist my primary goal is to assist you in exploring and understanding the issues causing stress in your life. To help you explore choices and how you want to address the issues. My next goal is to assist you to move forward or learn to live affectively with the issues in a positive, healthy manner. It is not my job to solve or tell you what you need to do with your life. I ask questions to develop understanding of you and your issue. I make suggestions based on past experience with understanding of the issues presented. My responsibility is to respect the choices you want to make.

If you are struggling with a mental health issue or simply have a problem to discuss, it would be my honor to walk alongside you as you begin your journey of healing. You do not have to walk alone.

Shanta Jenkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a certified Master Addiction Counselor. She earned her Master's in Community Counseling and a Bachelor's in Psychology and Sociology from the University of South Alabama in Mobile, AL.

I support clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, suicidal ideation, and more. I have helped many people who have experienced physical trauma, emotional abuse, and sexual abuse. My counseling style is centered around empowering clients and helping them discover their own solutions. I seek to listen first, and always strive to gain a thorough understanding of an individual so that I acquire a keen awareness of their experiences. I believe in the utmost need for connection and a trusting therapeutic alliance for positive outcomes to be a result of counseling.

Finding the right counselor is not always easy. It is important to find the best fit for your needs. I am positive and solution focused. I care a lot about my clients and their success. I have a lot of training in relationship dynamics, foundational issues, and mood regulation. I work towards helping my clients thrive in their personal life and develop realistic steps that work for them. My approach is very client centered, meaning I spend much of the time listening to understand your world before we journey down the road of achieving your goals and meeting your needs. I am also trained in EMDR.

I am an Allender Trained therapist working with clients who have significant stories of harm. My focus is in issues of trauma, addiction, grief, shame and relational issues for both men, women and couples . My training is in a narrative approach, helping people uncover their story, leading to pathways of healing. It is in relationships that we get wounded and it is in relationships that we find healing. We are storied people. Our stories include places of harm and trauma. I believe the work in healing and growth is uncovering our stories and bringing care to the places of harm.

This world is a broken place, and all of us are affected by that brokenness. Often, we seek to escape or cover the pain by pretending we don't hurt and looking to relationships and addictive behaviors to cope. As we avoid what's really happening inside, we can find ourselves struggling with depression, anxiety, and many other mental health issues. I look forward to working with clients who are hoping for a deeper level of healing and who are ready to do the courageous work of facing the truth about their story and how it has affected them.

As an experienced therapist and a good listener,I most enjoy working with a client who is motivated to make some changes in his/her life, and who is willing to think in some new ways, as well as to attempt some new behaviors. I can easily support a client who is open, honest, and self-searching, rather than very defensive. I am usually able to help those with relationship issues to effect change, to help those with addictions and compulsions, and to help clients with depression, stress disorders, and anxiety disorders. I am also experienced in dealing with grief and loss issues.
