Winzetta "Wendy" Jenkins , LCSW

Winzetta "Wendy" Jenkins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Tennessee who brings ten years of clinical experience to her practice. She prefers to be called Wendy and approaches each person with empathy and a nonjudgmental attitude, creating a space where people can explore stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anger, and self-esteem concerns. Wendy also works with life transitions, compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, body image, and workplace or separation-related challenges.

Her therapeutic style centers on meeting clients where they are mentally and emotionally, blending practical techniques with compassionate listening. She draws from client-centered therapy to prioritize each person’s perspective, cognitive behavioral therapy to address unhelpful thinking patterns, motivational interviewing to support change, solution-focused strategies to set achievable goals, and trauma-focused methods when past events shape current difficulties. This integrative approach helps tailor care to individual needs and goals.

Wendy offers flexible options for connecting and is accepting new clients in Tennessee. She emphasizes collaboration, helping people identify strengths and small steps toward relief and growth, while guiding them through coping strategies that fit their lives and values.
