About Wanda
Wanda Jensen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Montana with four years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, depression, grief, anger, mood disorders, and relationship and family problems.
She grew up in a small Montana town and views family and community connections as central to how people cope. Wanda supports people who want to make changes in their relationships and day-to-day routines. She describes her work as practical and focused on building skills that help with everyday life at home.
Wanda often uses systems thinking to look at how family, friends, social settings, finances, and the home environment shape a person’s challenges. That view helps her and the person she’s working with spot patterns that keep problems going and find places to change them.
Her background includes a degree in Applied Behavioral Analysis, which she uses to break behaviors into manageable steps and teach alternative skills. She also practices Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a method she says helps people process stuck memories and the strong feelings tied to them.
In sessions she leans on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods. She aims to help people identify strengths, try different ways of coping, and make steady progress toward their goals.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit into online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying what really matters. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that formed in close relationships and how those patterns affect current relationships and parenting. It can help people who struggle with closeness, abandonment fears, or recurring relationship conflicts. Client-Centered Therapy centers conversations on the person’s goals and experience, with the therapist listening and responding to help the person find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Wanda will talk with each person about their situation, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to use. That collaborative process means methods can shift as needs change.
