Shondalea 'Shonda' Jensen

Shondalea "Shonda" Jensen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, sleep problems, ADHD, and life changes. Shonda names life purpose among her interests and focuses on helping people who feel stuck or uncertain about what comes next.

She has worked in private practice and community mental health settings. That mix means she has experience with both short-term goals and longer conversations about life patterns. Shonda uses practical conversation and evidence-based methods to help people notice what is getting in the way and try new ways of coping.

Her style is interactive and person-centered. Sessions include listening, reflection, and collaborative goal-setting. She draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking, psychodynamic perspectives to look at recurring patterns, and motivational interviewing to build readiness for change.

People often come to her for help with relationships, blended family concerns, body image, fertility stress, chronic illness or pain, and problems with control or guilt. She also offers support for those dealing with divorce, communication breakdowns, or past domestic violence.

Shonda speaks English and practices in Georgia. Her counseling work avoids labels and focuses on concrete steps people can try between sessions. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's booking flow.

How her approaches translate to online work

Shonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide much of her work. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral experiments, which can help with anxiety, sleep problems, and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy centers on attentive listening and reflection so clients can clarify what matters to them and decide on next steps.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and support calmer thinking. Together, these methods give practical skills and a conversational setting to notice patterns and try alternatives. Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work; Shonda collaborates with each person to match methods to goals and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. The therapist will discuss how to shape sessions so they fit everyday life while focusing on concrete steps toward clients' stated goals.
