Welcome! Making the decision to look for support is not an easy one, but I am glad you have taken the first step. My name is Anne Jenkins (Lawrence). My path has always brought me to a place where I was able to collaborate and assist in the process of healing from trauma. I am also experienced in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders; supporting persons who are members of the neurodivergent population navigate their experiences; supporting individuals who are discovering their gender identity and/or sexual identity as well as persons navigating change, grief and loss.

Have you experienced trauma? Do you worry excessively? Are you depressed? Has a loved one died and the loss is too much to handle? Do you avoid people & places because you're afraid? Are you dealing with issues around your sexuality & gender? Do you sense that something's "just not right" with your world, but you cannot put your finger on it? *If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, maybe it's time to try therapy?

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families. Most of my experience has been with Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Depression & Stress. I believe it is important for me to have a collaborative professional relationship with each client so that we can collectively meet the client's needs.

Maybe you are having a hard time processing a traumatic event that has happened to you? You are not alone, and you do not have to continue struggling. I will provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive atmosphere that allows you to express yourself openly and freely. As a client of mine, I will help you work through whatever it is you are currently experiencing and help you work towards a happier tomorrow.

It can be difficult to open up and talk about your life stressors to someone you don’t know. Sometimes we can feel unheard or alone and just need someone who can be a helping, nonjudgmental, and listening ear. The hardest part can be finding the words to express ourselves and process what can feel like a jumbled mess and you just need someone to help put the scattered puzzle pieces together to create a beautiful picture. Aristotle said it best, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” I can help with building coping skills, work on effective communication, self-expression, processing trauma/grief, and mindfulness.

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety for the first time due to life changes and transitions or may be concerned as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

Do you ever feel like you're drowning in the sea of responsibilities? Between work, relationships, and all your commitments, it's easy to lose sight of what truly makes you exceptional.

As a dedicated therapist, my mission is to walk with you as you seek answers to these fundamental questions. Using a mindfulness-based approach, we can take a moment to pause and reflect on what truly matters. Together, we'll explore the depths of your being and uncover the unique strengths that make you who you are.
