Jenna Canterbury

Jenna Canterbury is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people navigate big life changes and everyday stressors. She focuses on practical support for anxiety, depression, grief, anger, ADHD, and challenges related to parenting, career, and identity. Jenna creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what’s most pressing for them.

She uses approaches informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy and adapts sessions to each person’s needs. That means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing new coping skills, and following the client’s lead on goals and pacing. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-focused, not overly complex.

Jenna earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Georgia and a Master of Social Work from the University of Memphis. She holds LCSW and LISW-CP credentials and has eight years of professional experience in mental health settings. Her background includes working with both children and adults in clinical roles.

She offers appointment times outside standard business hours to help people with busy schedules access care. Jenna emphasizes reducing stigma around mental health and meeting clients where they are. People who value a respectful, down-to-earth therapist often find her approach practical and approachable.

To begin, Jenna asks people to describe their current concerns and priorities so sessions can be tailored. She encourages small, achievable steps and regular check-ins so progress is clear and manageable.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Jenna uses techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills like thought records, activity planning, and behavioral experiments.

She also works from a Person-Centered perspective, which means she follows the client’s lead and focuses on empathy, respect, and collaboration. That approach helps people feel heard and empowers them to set their own goals and pace for change.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jenna will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them over time based on progress and comfort.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, require less travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals often use these flexible ways of meeting to help people maintain consistency while balancing work, parenting, and other responsibilities.
