About Dionne
Dionne Jenkins is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, grief, addictions, and life changes. She brings 25 years of experience to sessions and aims to help people regain purpose and inner strength. Dionne works from a hopeful, down-to-earth stance that focuses on what a person can do next.
Dionne uses straightforward conversations to identify problems and try small, practical steps that build confidence.
Background and approach
She often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and a client-centered approach to fit each person’s needs. Sessions look at thoughts, actions, and values to find workable changes. Her work also touches on caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, attachment concerns, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and issues that affect women.
She listens for what matters most and helps people set clear, achievable goals. The aim is to notice patterns and practice new responses so life feels more manageable. Dionne describes her practice as influenced by personal faith alongside clinical training, though she does not offer spiritual counseling as a formal specialty.
She has spent many years in community mental health settings across Georgia and brings that practical background into sessions. People who come to Dionne usually want tools they can use between meetings. She focuses on building resilience and hope so people can move forward from hard moments.
Her style is warm, direct, and focused on real-life results.

Therapy approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps aligned with personal values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions because it focuses on what matters and practical actions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room by listening deeply and reflecting what matters most, which can help rebuild self-worth and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it is often chosen for anxiety, depression, and anger management.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Dionne will work with each person to try methods that match their goals and preferences, then adjust based on what helps. That collaborative way makes it easier to settle into a style that feels useful and realistic.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can fit into busy days or provide quick support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
