About Tony
Tony Jenkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with ten years of experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar disorder, and related concerns. He offers straightforward, practical sessions that focus on what is happening now and what people want to change.
In sessions he helps people talk through strong emotions and recurring patterns. He uses tools that help reduce reactivity, manage mood swings, and build clearer thinking. He also supports people navigating identity, relationship strain, grief, and issues such as addiction or ADHD.
Tony draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for managing thoughts and behaviors. He also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the impact of past harm, and Internal Family Systems to look at the different parts of someone’s inner life. These are used in practical, step-by-step ways rather than in abstract terms.
He aims to create an environment where people can name what angers or frustrates them and try new responses. Sessions include talking, skill practice, and planning for real situations outside therapy. Tony prioritizes clear goals and short-term strategies when that fits the person’s needs.
People who come because they lose their temper with loved ones, feel persistent resentment, or struggle with mood instability will find sessions focused on skills and understanding. He asks direct questions, offers concrete exercises, and checks progress each time.
How his approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments. It helps with anger triggered by negative thinking and with mood symptoms by teaching practical coping steps.DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are useful when anger feels overwhelming or leads to repeated conflict.
Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process past hurt so it has less power over present reactions. This approach can reduce reactivity that stems from earlier experiences.
Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to decide which approach or combination of approaches matches their goals and preferences. Sessions are adjusted over time based on what is helping and what needs more focus.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports continuing skill practice between sessions and keeps work focused on real-life situations that cause anger.
