Getting to know Christina Jenkins

Taking the first step toward caring for your mental health is an act of courage and I am here to support you. I specialize in working with children and young adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, and life transitions, while providing a safe space to heal and grow. Together, we will build the tools for a more balanced life. My approach Every person's journey is unique, so I use a blend of approaches. In cognitive-behavioral therapy, I will help you explore how your thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and will give you tools to feel more in control of your emotions. Solution-focused therapy focuses on your strengths and goals- this approach helps you build more confidence. My focus Life can be overwhelming at times, especially when you are facing stress, depression, anxiety, or major changes. I work with children, teens, and young adults who are navigating these challenges and feeling disconnected. I will work with you and or with your child to create a plan for growth, resilience, and empowerment. My communication style I prioritize open communication to create a safe, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening, where you can reflect, grow, and process at your own pace. Together, we will work toward clarity, self-awareness, and practical steps for positive change. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began with a desire to help others through some of life's most difficult moments. No one should have to face their challenges alone, and that healing begins when we feel truly heard, understood, and supported. As a therapist, I see our work together as a healing journey-one that honors your pain and celebrates your strength. My goals for you Through collaboration, we will set goals that matter to you. We will work through sustainable change-helping you not only reach your goals, but also feel more confident, capable, and grounded. I am here to support you and to provide you with tools that can help you maintain
