About Connie

Connie Jenks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with 19 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate trauma and abuse, grief and loss, motivation, and a range of mood disorders. Working with individuals facing depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, anger, and other life changes, she blends practical strategies with empathic support to foster steadier coping and clearer direction.

Connie creates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. She emphasizes collaboration, listening closely to each person’s experience and tailoring sessions to address self-esteem, communication difficulties, compassion fatigue, and co-occurring concerns such as post-traumatic stress and personality or mood disorders. Her approach also attends to issues like forgiveness, guilt and shame, self-harm, and concerns specific to women and clients who are visually impaired.

Connie views the first step into therapy as a courageous move and positions herself as a supportive guide on the journey toward improved well-being. She draws on a range of therapeutic methods to meet clients where they are and to help them build practical skills for managing change and reclaiming balance.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Connie integrates several established approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on safely processing distressing experiences and building strategies to reduce trauma-related symptoms, which can be helpful for people who have experienced abuse or other traumatic events. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical tools for mood disorders, depression, and challenges like addictions or anger. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and validation, giving clients a supportive space to explore grief, self-esteem, and difficult life transitions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Connie collaborates with clients to determine which methods feel most useful, adjusting techniques based on each person’s goals, preferences, and progress so the process remains individualized and respectful.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, connect from different locations including international settings, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible. Licensed professionals, including therapists like Connie, use these formats to provide consistent support and practical strategies across a variety of concerns.
