LCSW, 12 years of experience
Nice to meet you, my name is Jenessia (Janessa) Cunningham. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents and families across all seasons of life. I enjoy getting to know my clients and catering solutions to their unique strengths and target areas for growth. Thank you for taking a moment out of your day to browse my page.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the unique challenges you're facing. This will help us create a tailored treatment plan to guide us during future sessions.
My greatest strength as a provider is that I am genuine and look at clients thru a strength's perspective.
I enjoy working with adults to help reduce stress or anxiety and form healthy communication and boundaries. I love working with mothers from the beginning of their pregnancy journey and those diagnosed with post-partum depression. I also specialize in helping those diagnosed with ADHD learn about their diagnosis and build skills to help manage life more positively. As a former and accomplished medical social worker, I have unique insights to help clients cope with chronic illnesses.
Motivational Interviewing is a technique that is designed to help you find your personal desires to change. Change is uncomfortable even if it is for the best but by exploring your why and need to change you will be more invested and committed to the process to achieve your goals.
Exploring current thoughts and feelings and identifying tools to develop new thinking patterns will help promote positive change, reduce stress and anxiety.
