About Detria

Detria Jenkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Sessions are described as interactive and respectful, with a straightforward style that sometimes uses light humor.

Her practice covers a broad range of concerns. She helps people manage panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and the isolation that can follow hard events. Communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose are also common topics she addresses.

Detria draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and mixes approaches such as cognitive-behavioral methods and humanistic ideas. That means she works on changing harmful thought patterns while also paying attention to personal values and meaning. Sessions tend to be practical and conversational rather than strictly academic.

She describes her counseling style as kind and real. Humor is used when it fits, and she aims to avoid labeling people. The emphasis is on clear strategies people can use between sessions to cope with stress and move through grief or depression.

Detria has worked in mental health since 2009 and has experience supporting people who have lived with trauma or emotional abuse. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the site's process.

Sessions are offered in English and operate under a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions

Detria uses a mix of cognitive-behavioral methods and humanistic approaches. Cognitive-behavioral methods involve identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing specific skills to change reactions. This approach can help with anxiety, panic attacks, and depressive thinking. Humanistic approaches focus on a person’s values and personal meaning and are useful when people want to clarify life purpose or work through feelings like guilt and shame.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. That often means trying practical exercises, reviewing how they go, and adjusting methods over time so the plan stays relevant.

Confirm session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find phone sessions require less bandwidth and feel simpler for quick updates, while video can support in-session exercises and visual cues. Ask about the current session options when scheduling so the format matches everyday needs.
