About Tony

Tony Jenkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 10 years of experience. He helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, self-esteem, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and he works with a wide range of life and identity issues.

Tony focuses on clear, direct work that addresses the problems people bring. He uses practical strategies from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Trauma-Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems inform his way of handling past wounds and internal conflicts.

In sessions he listens for patterns that keep problems repeating. Then he helps people try small, manageable changes. That might mean practicing new ways to respond to anger, testing thoughts that fuel anxiety, or building routines that stabilize mood for someone with bipolar disorder.

He also pays attention to the social and cultural parts of a person’s life. That includes issues tied to sexual identity, multicultural background, kink and alternative sex culture, military experience, and non-monogamous relationships. He takes those contexts into account when planning therapy tasks and goals.

For first steps he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. The practice uses a subscription billing model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions are arranged through the platform's appointment process.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions

Tony commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in his work. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on processing past traumatic events and building specific skills to reduce the ways trauma shows up in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as goals shift or progress is made.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not listed in the biography. Talk through available session options during the scheduling step so you can pick what fits your routine. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. A clear plan for how sessions will run helps keep therapeutic time focused and practical.
