Tony Jenkins, LPC

Tony Jenkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression. He aims to make beginning therapy easier and encourages people to take the first step toward support. He presents a calm, straightforward presence to help people feel heard.

In sessions he creates a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. He works with clients to set clear goals and practical steps to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. That might include learning skills to handle strong emotions, reorganizing negative thoughts, or mapping reactions that come from past trauma.

Tony draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns. He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. Trauma-Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems inform his way of understanding how past events shape current behavior.

He has around 10 years of professional experience in counseling and has worked with a range of concerns including addictions, grief, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, and relationship issues. His additional focus areas include multicultural concerns, veteran and armed forces issues, and non-traditional intimate relationships.

Sessions are offered in English and he practices in Georgia. He invites people to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session when they are ready.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Many people find that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps them spot and shift unhelpful thoughts, reduce worry, and tackle symptoms of depression or anxiety. Online sessions can be used to practice identifying negative thinking, try alternative perspectives, and plan behavioral experiments between meetings.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Delivered remotely, DBT-style work can include skill coaching, homework practice, and short check-ins to review how new skills fit into daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaboratively consider your goals, needs, and preferences to decide whether CBT, DBT, Trauma-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, or a combination will be most helpful. That decision is revisited as progress is made.

Confirm available session options before booking so you know what formats the therapist currently offers. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and let people continue care from different locations within the same state. It also supports brief check-ins and focused skill practice between longer sessions.
