Hi! I’m Jeshonda, a licensed clinical social worker. My private practice is Atonement Counseling LLC. I have over 6 years of experience working with adult clients. I help clients who battle with depression, anxiety, stress, have low self-esteem, and been through traumas. The goal is to help clients obtain joy, heal, and become the best version of themselves. You deserve to have peace of mind and determine your purpose in life. So don’t hesitate to reach out because I look forward to working with you!
We will start by introducing ourselves and getting a feel for what the issues and problems have been for client. This will help me develop a treatment plan with client that can help them achieve goals.
I am well-trained in assisting clients with identifying their triggers and safe places. As well as, ways to manage emotions and cope with triggers in the moment.
I love seeing clients become more optimistic after being depressed or anxious. Clients deserve to feel happy and not weighed down by life’s stressors or uncertainties. So I create a safe place where clients can speak freely and not be judged. I am here to support and guide clients each step of the way along their mental health journey.

I learned about Grow Therapy through a close friend of mine and thought I'd give it a try - and I am glad I did. Meeting Jeshonda for the first time felt so natural and personable. She is very authentic and asks questions to truly get to know your therapy needs and goals. She provided great insight and resources and we worked together to develop a plan to achieving my ultimate goals. Overall, my first therapy session went great with Jeshonda and I look forward to my next one.

Shonda was exactly what I hoped for. She's attentive and often has the response needed for me when I'm asking questions or seeking understanding. Her style is also client-centered, ensuring my needs are met. She attentive to what I say and provides tools that help me between sessions. She's been, in my opinion, led by the Holy Spirit and obedient, providing me with exactly what I need in the moment from a Biblical perspective.

I feel like I am growing. For sure, the anxiety that I was experiencing before her was extremely challenging.
