My name is Cristal Jenkins, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia, Washington State, Oregon, California and Florida. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Washington in 2012. I've had the privilege of working with individuals and families in various settings over the past 15+ years. My experience spans many areas, including depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship issues, parenting challenges, vocational stress, and addiction. I specialize in trauma therapy, which means I help people who have experienced distressing, overwhelming, or life-altering events that continue to affect their thoughts, emotions, or relationships. Trauma can manifest in many ways—persistent anxiety, difficulty trusting others, emotional numbness, or feeling "stuck" in past experiences. Through a compassionate, strengths-based approach, I work with clients to gently process their experiences, build resilience, and rediscover their sense of self and safety. At the heart of my practice is the belief that people are incredibly resilient and that healing is possible with the right support. I bring a calm, open-minded, and nonjudgmental presence to my work. I see each client through a strengths-based lens, helping you recognize and use your inner resources to move forward with confidence and hope. You're welcome to message me anytime through BetterHelp. One of the great benefits of this platform is the ability to communicate more frequently and flexibly than in traditional therapy. I typically check messages twice a day, Monday through Friday, and offer sessions through video, phone, live chat, or asynchronous messaging—whatever suits your comfort level and schedule. I'm honored to walk with you through this chapter, and I look forward to getting to know you and supporting your growth. Best regards, Cristal Jenkins, LCSW
