About ZsaZsa

Zsa Zsa Jenkins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with 45 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, and parenting challenges. Her practice also includes work with mood disorders, bipolar concerns, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Jenkins draws on straightforward conversation and practical planning in sessions. She asks what matters most to the person who comes in and focuses on clear, manageable goals. Sessions may include skills practice, problem-solving, and talking through family roles and patterns that affect present relationships. Family of origin issues are part of the areas she addresses, especially when early roles shape current behavior.

Her background includes work in child protective services, community mental health, hospitals, military bases, and nonprofits. She has experience with individual and group work and has provided services to adults aged 25 and older. That varied practice informs how she notices practical strengths and barriers in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches she uses include client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, and solution-focused techniques. In a typical session she mixes talking, reflection, and concrete steps to try outside of sessions.

She encourages questions about how she works and supports people in deciding whether to continue or seek a second opinion. The first step is identifying the issues a person wants to focus on and agreeing on simple, achievable next steps.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals; it supports work on relationship patterns, family of origin issues, and self-esteem by following what the client says is most important. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle stressful situations. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills and present-moment practices that can reduce rumination and help with stress and grief.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. She will discuss options and collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change as therapy continues and new concerns emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. The main practical benefit of online sessions is fitting therapy into everyday life - for example, making it easier to attend during a work break or when travel is difficult. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that avoid needing to be on camera, depending on what is offered. Licensed professionals can use the same therapeutic techniques remotely, including skills practice from CBT and guided mindfulness exercises.
