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.

You’ve moved forward. But the past still feels present. Virtual EMDR therapy for adults across Texas seeking support with trauma, anxiety, and feeling stuck.

Thank you for taking a moment out of your day to browse my page.

First session

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.

Strengths

My greatest strength as a provider is that I am genuine and look at clients thru a strength's perspective.

Ideal clients

My ideal client is an adult who feels held back by difficult experiences—even when life looks fine on the outside. They may struggle with anxiety, feel constantly on edge, or notice past experiences affecting their relationships, confidence, and daily life. They’re interested in EMDR and want a supportive space to work toward feeling more grounded and connected to themselves. Veteran friendly.

Treatment methods

EMDR

Do difficult experiences still leave you feeling anxious, on edge, or stuck—even when you know you’re safe? I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidence-based therapy for PTSD that helps people process traumatic memories and reduce the distress connected to them.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT—not to be confused with “act naturally,” though I promise no one’s going for stand-up comedy)—is a form of psychotherapy that plays in the turf of mindfulness and behavioral science. At its heart, ACT invites you to stop wrestling with your inner chaos and instead show up with curiosity, clarity, and purpose.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

MBT will help reduce anxiety and depression. Proven benefits are: Improved Emotional Regulation: Enhances the ability to respond to emotional challenges with greater flexibility. Reduced Rumination: Decreases repetitive negative thinking that can exacerbate mental health issues. Enhanced Self-Awareness: Promotes a deeper understanding of one's thought and behavior patterns. Better Stress Management: Equips individuals with tools to handle stress more effectively.

Ive tried so many therapists but I’ve never left my first appointment feeling so excited for the next. She was warm, outgoing, supportive, motivating, funny and it felt just so easy to talk to her. She didn’t feel like a stranger.
