Lawrencia Jenkins, LPC, PLMFT, AAMFT-SC

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Provisionally Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I received my Master of Arts in Marriage in Family Therapy from the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM). Currently, I am a Doctoral Candidate, pursuing a PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy at ULM. I am a EMDR, TBRI and MST trained therapist.

I work with individuals, couples, families, children and teens – ages 10 and up. I work with clients who have a variety of challenges such as: racial trauma, adjustment, and transition issues, relationship conflict and challenges, PTSD, parent-child relationships, struggles with self-care, self-esteem issues, anxiety, depression and more!

I aim to help clients of all ages to embark on their journey of healing and improvement, in hopes of the client reaching their maximum change. My goal for therapy is to work with the client to become equipped with the ideal tools that are needed to navigate through life’s obstacles and hardships. When working with clients, I utilize strength-based techniques to influence positive change.

I specialize in working with minority populations and exploring the effects of historical trauma , as well as adolescent and teen girls. It has always been my passion to empower adolescents and teen girls as they transition into adulthood.
