ZsaZsa Jenkins , LCSW

Zsa Zsa Jenkins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 45 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, parenting strain, relationship issues, and coping with life changes. She helps people who are navigating mood disorders, bipolar challenges, anger, self-esteem struggles, and feelings of isolation.

Zsa Zsa uses straightforward, conversational sessions. She helps clients name the issues they want to work on and sets clear, practical goals. Sessions often include skill-building, problem-solving, and attention to everyday habits that affect mood and relationships.

Her background spans children's protective services, community mental health, hospitals, military bases, nonprofit agencies, and private practice. That range shaped a focus on both assessment and ongoing counseling. She has experience leading group counseling as well as individual work for adults aged 25 and up.

Common tasks in sessions include identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, practicing new ways to handle conflict, and building routines that improve emotional stability. She encourages clients to bring concerns about procedures or the process up early so those points can be addressed together.

Therapy with Zsa Zsa is collaborative. She will help a client decide which strategies to use and will suggest adjustments as progress is made. If someone feels unsure about the fit, she supports seeking another professional opinion before continuing.

Approaches that translate well online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding to what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and choose their priorities for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, test methods that fit the situation, and adjust plans as progress is made. Together they decide whether to focus on thought patterns, present problems, or self-exploration based on what the client needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful when visual cues matter, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can fit quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while keeping therapy part of everyday life.
